The Akari 1AD is one of the classic models in the Akari series. The letter “D” following “A” stands for “Design.” Unlike the traditional image of plain Japanese washi paper lanterns, this model features distinctive abstract hand-painted patterns. Exhibited alongside the solid-coloured Akari models at the Museum of Modern Art in 1952, it immediately captivated viewers with its fresh and modern aesthetic, gaining admiration worldwide.
Because of this, the Akari models marked with a “D” hold a particularly special place in Isamu Noguchi’s design legacy — the 1AD being one of his personal favourites.
The Akari lights are handcrafted of bamboo ribbing and translucent washi paper that is made from the inner bark of the mulberry tree. Isamu Noguchi has compared the light of Akari to sunlight filtered through traditional shōji paper doors – the light sculptures create a warm glow and pleasant ambience. According to Noguchi, "All that you require to start a home are a room, a tatami, and Akari.”
