Compact Design
As Japanese society makes the transition from growth to maturity, people's desire for material objects is beginning to change. "Compact" has become a key word for those living with fewer, smaller possessions.

Explore the thinking behind Japan's compact design with the help of our studio guest, architect Koichi Suzuno.
