The On-on table expresses the same language as the furniture from the One on One family. The universal feature, the square beam, drives a play of perspectives, that in this case becomes subtly ironic. Fukusawa has pursued the ideal of “objective” objects, able to reflect the environment in which they are placed rather than the individuality of the designer, making them ready to arouse that sense of déjà vu.
