本書介紹日本知名設計師佐藤大(Oki Sato)及其設計事務所「Nendo」。Nendo，日語意為「黏土」，象徵著設計的可塑性與創造力。佐藤大以漫畫風格的草圖呈現設計概念，並創造出世界上最富想像力的家具。他的設計涵蓋建築、室內裝潢、家具、餐具等多個領域，他說過：「沒有我不願設計的東西。」
佐藤大的設計展現出卓越的概念清晰度，他讓自己的想像力自由發揮，並用簡單的黑色線條記錄構想，例如由陶瓷旋渦勾勒出的洗手盆，或能夠旋轉合併成一體的木製筷子。這些平面草圖進一步轉化為極簡的立體形態，輪廓乾淨、色彩以單色為主。這種設計理念與傳統的日本水墨畫相似──僅用幾筆就構築出完整的畫面，去繁就簡，消除視覺干擾。
本書透過佐藤大的原始草圖、完整的產品影像與說明文本，深入剖析他的獨特創作過程，帶領讀者逐步探索他的創新與玩味世界，揭示其50件獨樹一幟的作品背後的設計秘辛。
He named his firm ‘Nendo’, the Japanese word for modelling clay; he uses manga-like sketches to illustrate his design concepts; and he creates some of the most imaginative furniture in the world: he is Oki Sato, one of Japan’s most prolific designers. At any given moment, he has hundreds of projects in the works – architecture, interiors, furniture, tableware, and more. ‘There is nothing I would not design,’ says Sato.
Sato renders his designs with remarkable conceptual clarity. At the outset, he allows his imagination to run wild and then documents his idea with a simple black line drawing – be it a bathroom basin defined by a single, ceramic swirl or a pair of wooden chopsticks that twist together to become one. These 2D images are converted into minimal 3D shapes described with clean outlines and a largely monochrome palette. Like a traditional Japanese ink painting, which constructs an image with just a few brush strokes, Sato extracts the unnecessary and eliminates distraction.
Featuring Sato’s original sketches, full-scale product images and explanatory texts, nendo uncovers and unpicks the designer’s unique creative process, guiding the reader step-by-step through his innovative and playful world to reveal the secrets behind fifty of his inimitable works.
