February 10th Color Calendar

"Ikiharu" is the end of winter and the beginning of spring.
A pale white peach color, like two people quietly breathing in the same air.
There was no sound of wind, no hint of fragrance,
It is simply a color that reflects the moment when space softly unravels.

When the morning light spreads gently through the shoji screen,
There is still a chill in the air.
However, you can definitely hear the "breath of spring" in the distance.
It's a quiet movement, like the season taking a deep breath.

The plum buds seem to be opening slightly towards the light.
The time it takes for the incense in the vessel to dissolve into the space.
All of this may be part of the breath of spring.

This color is
"Take a deep breath of the season" or "Relax the air."
When spring breathes,
The space changes gently and quietly.

Breath of Spring in Everyday Life

• The pale pink morning light spreading through the shoji screen • The moment when the fragrance rising from the white porcelain vessel melts into the air • The hint of a flower before it blooms, breathing in the light

WABISUKE values ​​breath and spring
A color that resonates with the "breathing of materials" and the "softness of space."
Something invisible is quietly breathing,
A gentle seasonal poem.
