Matsuoka International has a mission to serve the world community of lovers of fine things with exceptional objects for gracious living; artifacts conceived with a fresh approach to design and interior furnishing - both as an architectural discipline and as a fashion statement. Designs are meticulously engineered, constructed with care, infused with an extraordinary aesthetic sensibility.
Our goals:
To serve the worldwide architectural and interior design community, and lovers of fine things with beautiful, ergonomically thoughtful, objects for the adornment of interior living and work spaces.
Providing a fresh approach, conceived with a view toward creating a new idiom of International Design; neither strictly Asian, nor predominantly Occidental in orientation.
Not "fusion" in the conventional sense, the aim is rather to provide objects which are visually, tactilely and ergonomically correct in their own right, possessed of an intrinsic aesthetic and comfort, emanating from the proper selection of materials, well conceived geometries, the right proportions, and scale, to meet a diversity of interior requirements.
The objects are tools in the hands of lovers of beautiful things for the creation of extraordinary living and work spaces.
There is flexibility of customization to adapt to various architectural and design challenges.
To provide an international community of furniture designers and craftsmen with a creative outlet, accessing a multiplicity of media for the realization of enduring works of furniture art and accessories.
The company possesses an enviable inventory of some of the most exotic timbers on the planet, and places at the disposition of artists precious metals, gems, stone, marble, textiles and interesting media of the most diverse kind, to excite their artistic inclinations.
Fuchu City craftsmen are famous for their fine woodwork, inlay, urushi lacquer and proprietary finish work which has distinguished them for centuries.
Upholstery is made in Thomasville, North Carolina, in the United States, by artisans skilled in every phase of upholstery craft. Designs are aesthetically appealing, exceptionally comfortable and built to last.
The Matsuoka family, company executives, engineers and the craftsmen in Fuchu City and Thomasville, NC, offer the Matsuoka International brand to showcase what we believe is among the best the world has to offer. We are thrilled to share this achievement with you.
