We are pleased to announce that we are the new licensed distributor of Obaku Harmony in North America. Obaku Harmony Swiss is a mix of Asian and European function and style. The philosophy of Obaku Harmony is that there should be a sense of calm and balance in the items we use to adorn ourselves with. In Asia, Zen Buddhist philosophies have given rise to a natural simplicity - in both thought and act. Obaku Harmony takes its name from a branch of Zen philosophy and has created a universe characterised by a sense of calm - free from all superfluous details. The northern European countries have a long design tradition featuring functionality and simplicity of composition. Obaku Harmony Swiss has ingerited the best from both these cultures, and has blended the simplicity found in both. Currently Obaku Harmony is distributed in 20 countries across Europe and Asia.
