Part of the Aizome series, the Aizome sideboard acts as a canvas for traditional Japanese colors and finishes. The bold piece is covered in a wash of Japanese indigo, or Aizome, and takes its name from the distinct hue. The saturated color palette is offset by quiet details. The recessed surface provides a lip for opening the drawers below and the concealed red handles echo a sentiment of mystery and subtlety often present in Japanese life and aesthetics: the significant things are not always immediately visible.

Zoë’s approach is a sculptural and intuitive exploration of color, material, and form, that is counterbalanced by a desire to create functional objects that respond to our lived experience. Her work has been exhibited internationally and she has collaborated with brands and clients in North America, Europe, and Asia. Zoë currently teaches design at Parsons School of Design in New York.

Ariake
Founded by the Legnatec and Hirata Chair workshops in the furniture-making town of Morodomi, Saga, Ariake takes its name from the nearby Ariake Sea - and from the Japanese word for daybreak. The brand pairs Japanese craftsmanship with leading international designers including Gabriel Tan, Keiji Ashizawa, Norm Architects and Anderssen & Voll.
The result is a collection that balances handwork with precise machining, made from oak, ash, hinoki and cedar with signature finishes like sumi and indigo - from dining chairs and benches to desks, shelving and cabinetry. Explore the Ariake collection at APATO, Australia's home of authentic Japanese designer furniture, and enquire for finishes, lead times and trade pricing.
