I love Muji too, and latelly i’ve been totally amazed with another japanese company: NENDO.
As Charles Baudelaire once said “Absolute simplicity is, indeed, the best way of being distinguished”.

Loved you talk at the V&A london.

MUJI is a gem. Huge fan of how deeply ingrained and simple to behold their identity has become. Recently wrote an essay about the application of their design and identity principles. Anyone interested can read and download here: http://bit.ly/NaKXT

I miss Muji. I really wish they would come to Canada. I was a huge fan when I lived in Japan. natsukashii

Hallo John, I’m reading your book(the laws of simplicity) now. Like what you mentioned in the book(page. vii), this website should offer some additional materials, i.e., your artwork pics used in the book. Since this site had once gone down, are these materials now still available? Where can I find them? Thanks!

Hi, I read the book Simplicity and I found it to be in many ways exactly what I think and feel about life. Now I have had a look at your homepage of risd. This would be exactly the right place for me if I were younger. With many Greetings from Germany Christine Noeh
