Yohaku

Jul 2, 2015·30m

Japanese culture has developed a keen appreciation for "yohaku", which means something like "negative space". In everything from art and entertainment to clothing, food and housing, space is more than just a blank - it is a form of expression that provides room for implication and suggestion. How has the Japanese created beauty in blank spaces? We're joined by graphic designer Shun Kawakami, who is on a quest to bring Japanese aesthetics to the world. Watch and discover the beauty of yohaku!
