MUSUHI is an innovative spatial installation that redefines the integration of nature within contemporary interiors, designed to cultivate profound natural tranquility. At its core is the patented "AHUB" aluminum frame, ingeniously re-engineered from its original application in sensitive medical and monitoring systems. This robust yet elegant structure is transformed into a sculptural, vertical platform, capable of housing diverse nature-focused displays such as vibrant moss terrariums, serene bonsai, and intricate miniature landscapes.
Its distinctive vertical capsule form is not only visually striking but also highly versatile, featuring interchangeable environments. This modularity allows MUSUHI to seamlessly adapt and create curated living scenes, elevating the ambiance and promoting well-being in a range of settings, from luxurious hotels and peaceful clinics to dynamic reception spaces and private residences. A thoughtfully integrated Japanese obi (kimono sash) gracefully wraps the frame, adding a subtle layer of cultural resonance that harmonizes with both traditional and modern aesthetics.
Beyond visual appeal, MUSUHI offers an immersive sensory experience. Optional, yet transformative, features including mist, aroma, and sound can be added to engage users on multiple levels, truly transforming the piece from simple decor into a restorative object that deeply engages memory and emotion.In addition to moss and rock and Bonsai
, the contents can be changed to miniatures, and we are also planning an optional plan to change the system to a system that allows hydroponic cultivation in case of an emergency.
MUSUHI masterfully bridges the precision of industrial design with the poetry of environmental storytelling. It stands as more than a decorative item; it is a meditative sanctuary, offering a vital pause that restores rhythm, breath, and a touch of stillness to the demanding pace of modern life. The underlying AHUB frame's heritage from healthcare ensures a modular groove system for flexible attachment and superior adaptability, allowing MUSUHI to be produced efficiently in small batches through a hybrid process of extrusion, sheet metal fabrication, and 3D printing, balancing structural integrity with expressive design.
