Studio Tour: Satsuki Shibuya

I’m so pleased to invite you into the studio of one of our very favorite ladies! Satsuki Shibuya is such an amazing designer and has a beautiful line of products. She’s been a huge supporter of Studio Sweet Studio from day one! Let’s see what she has to say about her space…

“With things finally settling down since moving, I’m so happy to be able to share the new studio space with you! Before, the studio was located in a high rise in the middle of downtown Los Angeles, with a corner of our living room set up as my office and views of another building right outside our window. For some, the hustle and bustle of the city is a nesting ground for artistic energy, but I’ve always been one to be inspired by quiet, peaceful, nature-esque places for creative imagination. Now, in the mornings, I wake up to birds chirping, the ocean breeze flowing through the windows and can enjoy a cup of freshly picked spearmint tea to start the day. Just being in a new environment has allowed me to see different perspectives on how I’ve been approaching work/life and has spawned new ideas that I would love to adventure into! It truly is my sanctuary and I finally feel like I’m in my element.

With the new company name (Zakka Nouveau is now Satsuki Shibuya!) & Fall/Winter ‘11 collection coming out soon, it’s been a bit crazy behind the scenes, but when I look out the window while working, it always reminds me to take a break, catch my breath and enjoy the quiet moments. Thanks for visiting!”
