Born in Nagano Japan, Ryuji designs structures, landscapes, interiors, furniture, and and just about anything else that he can get his hands on. His body of work is incredible and it highlights his versatility as an artist. He has won numerous design awards including the Good Design Award and JCD design awards three times.
Ryuji’s elegant Hechima chair design (bottom picture) is made completely of paper. The unique form of this seemingly fragile yet functional seat certainly pushes the boundaries of material and design.
