TAKT PROJECT
Design studio
Established in 2013, TAKT PROJECT is a design studio based in Tokyo and Sendai, led by Satoshi Yoshiizumi. The studio has been carrying out self-driven research projects —to destabilize existing frameworks— and the results have been mostly invited and often presented independently to museums as well as design exhibitions both domestically and internationally, including Milan Design Week, Design Miami/, Museum of Decorative Arts Paris (Musée des Arts Décoratifs), and the M+ museum in Hong Kong, 21_21 DESIGN SIGHT in Tokyo and Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art. Based on the research results, the studio realizes diverse projects to create ‘envisioned possibilities’ in collaboration with various clients.
