Authenticity Does Not Decorate: Presence and Beauty Embodied by Wakon Yosai (Japanese Spirit, Western Techniques)

Under the corporate philosophy of "making living enjoyable and beautiful," miratap sells housing equipment online. The compact kitchen "Ceragino," which fits Japanese housing spaces, possesses an object-like presence and beauty that runs through the minimalism of miratap (formerly sanwacompany): "Authenticity does not decorate." The square form, which accommodates minimal functions while eschewing all decorations, highlights the unique texture of porcelain tiles.
