Simon hosts a collection of designs and products which are true design icons.
Kazuhide Takahama completed his architectural studies in Tokyo. As he came into contact with many of Italy’s most important designers, he began to elaborate his own stylistic lexicon in this lively climate of cultural exchange, this then progressively defined itself over time.
The furniture he designs stands out for its rigour and the clean lines of its forms, as well as having its own language of poetic essentiality in which the signs from the Oriental Culture of his original training blend with those of the Western Culture in which he has since become immersed.
