Utensils, objects, functional utensils, after being used for a long time, are also objects that carry emotional weight. They are quiet, but they are never absent from life, accompanying people in their food, clothing, housing and transportation. But with daily use, have we ever thought about how different our daily lives would be with utensils? This time, we focus on these small-scale companions around us, first walk into the homes and studios of people who love objects, and see how daily and craft objects are intertwined with life and creation; jump into the tea ceremony, cooking, flower art, and incense burning that everyone can practice - 4 proper style situations, to see the key role that objects play in them, how they are used beautifully, and how they silently guide life. The craftsmanship is indispensable. Ask the Taiwanese, Japanese, and Korean professionals who work with different media, how they give each object its own unique personality through the innovation of craftsmanship? There are also selected proposals for handmade experiences and travel routes, and think together whether design must be useful? How can objects reflect the trajectory of life?
It is difficult to define an ideal life, but objects themselves carry many meanings - a necessity for survival, a vehicle for realizing hobbies, a gateway to understanding culture, an expression of taste, a motivation for travel, a repository of memories... It is hard not to wonder whether objects themselves are a perspective that allows us to escape from our usual center of thinking and get a glimpse of the core of life.
