What is good design? And what is its power? From traditional to cutting edge, we explore Japanese designs that are literally shaping our lives.

For centuries Japan has been home to the clean, simple aesthetics exemplified by Zen Buddhism, but also the glamorous extravagance of kabuki. The stone gardens of Zen temples recreate the natural flow of water using stone, encapsulating movement and stillness. Designs that express this kind of contrast are still being made today. Studio guest Sou Fujimoto is the architect behind several cutting-edge buildings, and he'll explore the topic of harmony and contrast in Japanese design.
