I begin with the humiliating question my 10-year-old sister posed: "Why do clothes look darker when wet?" (Answer: low optical reflectance.) This leads to the ultimate color question: What is the color of the universe? The answer, discovered 20 years ago, is beige—scientifically dubbed Cosmic Latte. Our shop coordinator recommended "greige" for our walls, but I have a superior, if useless, idea: "Grayish Cosmic Latte." After all, if the universe is beige, then our wooden furniture must be astronomically good.

While we aim for 100% wood utilization (joining pieces longer than 150 mm), the smallest offcuts remain a challenge. We seek ambitious consumers who see a sophisticated future for our beautiful, durable wooden balls after the kids "leave the nest."

【Originality is a characteristic only of a genius】 A student in the art class challenged his teacher, saying "it's meaningless to learn art. Art is something to feel, and our originality may be stunted by learning. " The teacher answer...
