NOW SHOWING – 01 'DNA' INAUGURAL EXHIBIT
This inaugural exhibition, DNA (Design Nor Art), pays fealty to these avant-garde pioneers, celebrating imperfection, diversity, and that inscrutable, anarchic spirit.
Showcasing eight objects that defiantly defy categorization, DNA embodies unapologetic rebellion, individuality, and the fusion of utilitywith imagination.

Selected for their historical significance and distinctive character, the objects in the exhibition are paired, like strands entwined in a double helix, to reveal shared aesthetics while suggesting newcontextual perspectives.
DNA serves as a metaphor for our philosophy, igniting the first of many projects at TOKONOMA.It symbolizes our unwavering commitment to curiosity, dialogue, and ideas.
