We interviewed to Mr. Takeshi Yamanaka, a former president of Maruni Wood Industry, to talk about an epoch making “nextmaruni” project which had run in 2005. This project was a significantly important moment for the company to collaborate with great designers with appealing the craftsmanship. That project had terminated just three years but after that they succeeded to work with two great designers, Naoto Fukasawa and Jasper Morrison. Especially, the chair named "HIROSHIMA", which is designed by Naoto Fukasawa, has been huge success all over the world, with thousands of chairs contracted in Apple Park, Cupertino, California.
