Lighting Designer Lindsey Adelman Explains How a Trip to Japan Taught Her Humility
The fabricator of luminaires, tiles, and wallpapers is inspired by humble mementos from the journey: scrap pieces of silk.
My husband and I went to Japan three years ago with some friends‚ including Michiko Sakano‚ a glassblower I’ve worked with for about 15 years.
