LIMITED EDITION MAGAZINE

SHOKUNIN

Shokunin means ‘to create’.

It is a soulful high-end magazine made especially for the Japanese Design Festival in Copenhagen by curator and graphic designer Zenia Ekdal.

The limited edition magazine celebrates the aesthetic connection between Japanese Craftsmanship and Danish Design traditions – and the passionate people behind them.

ARCHITEXTURE design atelier, and its founder Nanna Fog Lund is featured, showing creations of texture surface design for textile- and interior design.

Inspired by traditional Japanese origami folding techniques, the textures are created by hand and digitally processed, thus combining traditional craftsmanship with modern technology.

This unifying of functional aims and aesthetic expressions adds a captivating quality to the world surrounding us.

“Such a great pleasure to have your work in the Shokunin magazine, Nanna Fog Lund. Thank you so much for your participation and great commitment at the Japanese Design Festival. You truly transformed Seidokan’s authentic taeko dojo into a sincerely beautiful installation.”
