Naoto Fukasawa’s work may owe much to the legacy of Dieter Rams’ stripped-back style, but it’s in his balanced sensitivity that the student can even exceed the master. Fukasawa’s dining chair for Maruni’s 2008 collection is a sublime distillation of craftwork and offers an incomparable feel for raw wood that justifies his entry in this year’s awards.
