DESIGN TALKS plus - Season 4 Episode 20 Gifting
0.00 48 minutes Gifts are an indispensable part of life all over the world. They are used to say "thank you" or "congratulations", or given to people that we care about. A range of emotions can be held inside a gift. Traditional Japanese designs convey some of these special feelings. Wrapping gifts in a particular way or adding a special knot can increase their value. Context designer Kotaro Watanabe explores how gifting designs have evolved over the centuries.
