No.9233 Optical

The timeless artistry of obi designs passed down through HOSOO is reborn in a new light.

This design extracts the traditional element, “Asanoha” hemp leaf pattern, inspired by the nature of the hemp plant, symbolizing health, stable growth and prosperity. Repetitive lines form intricate layers, creating a sense of visual depth.

This series enhances versatility while offering a reinterpretation of Japan’s historical aesthetics.

This collection was created in collaboration with the Milan-based design duo DIMORESTUDIO. It is inspired by more than 20,000 traditional obi patterns passed down through generations by the HOSOO family. By fusing the traditional beauty of Japan with the chromatic sensibility of Italy, it redefines the timeless value of textiles—creating something to be passed on into the future.
