Leaves

Leaves is a wall-mounted light object from CAJAS, our first studio collaboration with Shuko-san of Mano del Sur. Born from a shared appreciation for craftsmanship in Japan and Mexico—and a mutual love for cajas (boxes) as recurring forms in art and design—this piece blends traditional making with contemporary light.

Hand-stitched fabric creates a sculptural, leaf-like rhythm across the surface. When unlit, it reads as a quiet relief; when switched on, the LED glow reveals depth, texture, and warmth—turning the box into a soft, ambient source of light and atmosphere.
