Our Japanese friend Keiji Ashizawa just sent us this new project, which will be presented at this year’s Salone Satellite in Milan. The series ‘Pipeknot’ consists of a coat rack, a coffee table and a table – all of them are assembles by the same system. Welded steel pipes form the constructive knots. The wooden sticks which pass through them are fixed by dowels.

In Milan Keiji will introduce the first three designs, they will be followed by many more using the same technique.
