About the Item
Kensho light by Astrid Hauton
Dimensions: W 37 x D 18 x H 59 cm
Materials: woven washi paper, waxed black Valchromat, polyphane, Japanese paper, removable cover in
opalescent plexiglass.
« Kensho », in Zen tradition, refers to the experience of enlightenment, of seeing our true nature. The
Kensho lamp has been created to embrace this concept by transcending the usual form and fonction of
tatami. Combined with washi paper, it turns into a light. The presence of the Kensho lamp is an invitation to
see beyond our common sense of reality.
The Kensho lamp is part of the Kawayama collection.
Made from the weaving mat that covers the tatamis, the Kawayama collection takes this iconic element of
the Japanese culture to a new dimension. Traditionally flat and straight, the tatami suddenly expands in
volume and curves, to become luxury homeware and contemporary furniture. Each object is made by hand,
following a unique and meticulous process, which reveals the surprising structural properties and sublimates
the vibrant effect of this woven material.
The KENSHO lamp comes in different colour combinations. The electric cable can be in light or dark gray.
Astrid Hauton
Inspired by the Asian culture and the practice of Zen, Astrid Hauton creates high quality objects
and decors, with clean lines, which invite contemplation and inspire inner calm.
After graduating from ENSCI-Les Ateliers, Astrid chose to work with artisans in Vietnam, Laos and
Cambodia, where she collaborated with NGOs for 3 years. In contact with them, she discovered
local know-how and materials, and learned about oriental wisdom.
Back in Paris, she created the studio in 2015 and joined the Ateliers de Paris. Following her
artistic residency in Kyoto in 2017, Astrid started to study Zen philosophy and Feng-Shui
principles, which enlighten her on the art of living a harmonious life.
Her approach to design consists of considering “interior” and “interiority” as intrinsically linked. To
combine the art of living “at home” with the art of living “in ourselves”, in order to better inhabit
the world.
Astrid Hauton Studio explores know-how and sublimates materials, to create collections of
singular objects in limited series. The studio collaborates with prescribers, architects and brands,
to jointly design soothing spaces thanks to tailor-made creations.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
