Lacquerware Living Objects Design

Company: UNIT DESIGN

This project explores the integration of traditional lacquerware craftsmanship into modern living objects, aiming to bridge heritage aesthetics with contemporary lifestyle.

Inspired by the refined sheen, durability, and tactile warmth of lacquer, the design reinterprets household items—such as trays, containers, and serving wares—through minimalist form language and thoughtful detailing. Each piece balances elegance and utility, transforming daily rituals into moments of quiet beauty.

By preserving the essence of lacquer art while updating its application, the project pays homage to time-honored techniques while catering to modern users who seek both functionality and emotional connection in everyday objects.
