That’s not much of a surprise — the American designer traveled widely and drew on varying traditions in his work. Nakashima was born to Japanese immigrants in Washington state, studied architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, then worked in Paris, J...

It features a slab of black walnut cantilevered over two legs, with distinctive feet that resemble old-fashioned sled runners. Born in Spokane, Washington, Nakashima led a singular life d...
