Woodwork artist Yasunori Asakura fell in love with woodworking after he made one spoon from wood.
He has always enjoyed working with wood and his dream as a child was to become a carpenter one day. At the suggestion of his parents-in-law (who are the ceramic artists of this collaborative unit) he began woodworking as a hobby. He would go and buy materials at a home improvement store and use his kitchen or the park near his home as his workstation. The decision to get serious about woodworking came when he sold a spoon he had created for an exhibition to which he was invited by his parents-in-law.
