Launching Fall 2025
Ajiri Aki & Modern Matter
Launching this fall, Ajiri Aki’s collection for Modern Matter reimagines classic French motifs as sculptural hardware for modern living. Symbols of hospitality and elegance—pinecones, swans, and lion heads—are transformed into cabinet knobs, door sets, and tabletop accents, each piece bringing quiet beauty and timeless character to everyday spaces.
