The Edge Paradox
The first furniture collection where every curve is computed by algorithm and finished by hand. Looks sharp. Feels soft.
Direct by Design
You love your furniture.
Does it invite you back?
You chose every piece with care. The proportions, the material, the way light catches the grain. But when did you last run your hand along the edge just because it felt good? Most furniture rewards the eye. ENWA rewards the hand.
Edges that your eye reads as thin but your fingers discover are impossibly soft. That's not a compromise — it's a computation.
Next time you touch a table edge, you'll notice.
Not a radius.
An algorithm.
We don't round corners — that's a compromise you can see from across the room. Instead, our computational designer writes parametric scripts in Grasshopper that generate hundreds of curve variations. Each one is tested for how the hand reads it, how the eye perceives it. The result: an edge that looks thin but feels soft — not a crude fix, but a precise mathematical answer to a problem the furniture industry ignores.
Run your hand along the edge. Feel the curve start changing long before you expect it. By the time you reach what should be a corner — only softness.
円 (en) — circle, harmony, wholeness.
和 (wa) — peace, softness, Japan.
ENWA embodies the meeting of two worlds: the computational precision of contemporary Western design and the quiet, patient craft of Japanese woodworking tradition. Designed in our Tokyo studio by architects trained at Japan's most celebrated practices, each piece begins as an algorithm and ends as an object you want to touch.
Every piece flows without interruption.
Every surface invites your hand back.
Computed
Every curve starts as a Grasshopper script — the same parametric tools used for complex architecture. Hundreds of algorithmic variations, each tested against how human hands actually interact with edges. Inspired by Apple's squircle geometry, our continuous curvature begins changing direction long before you notice.
Crafted
A master craftsman with thirty years experience. Each piece CNC-roughed to the algorithm's specifications, then hand-finished over three to four days until the mathematics disappears and only the feeling remains.
Finished
Three coats water-based matte paint. Grain visible beneath. Nothing glossy, nothing synthetic. The surface stays warm to the touch — because the point was never to look perfect. It was to feel right.
European Oak
Chosen for its grain. Every plank tells a different story.
Hinoki Coming
Japanese cypress. Manufactured in Japan. Prized for centuries in temple construction.
Reclaimed Merbau Coming
Sourced from Malaysia. History in every surface.

We computed 200 curve iterations, hand-sanded each piece for 3 days until every edge invites touch, and put the price right on the page.
No hidden pricing. No appointments required. No designer as middleman. Just solid European oak, algorithmic precision, and a checkout button.
