The Japanese masu, with 1300 years of history.
Its traditional form and function reinterpreted with contemporary aesthetics.
The masu has been beloved in Japan since ancient times as a tool for measuring grains and as a sake cup for celebratory occasions. Its perfect square shape, golden ratio proportions, and the fragrance of hinoki cypress—all embody the essence of Japanese culture.
FOMUS reconstructs this traditional masu to fit contemporary lifestyles. Beyond its function as a mere vessel, we propose it as an art object and cultural bridge that conveys Japanese aesthetics to the world.
