Hiro Ogawa

After 10 years experience in sales of electrical equipment, Hiro OGAWA succeeded as 4th president of his family business (wholesaler of material for paper making) . With uncertain prospects, he withdrew from the paper material business in 2007 to found ATELIER BROOKS and convert his business to industrial design, his long-time dream. His concept is the harmony of beauty and comfort, with the aim of creating useful designs that are not only beautiful, but are also based on the lifestyle of the user. In particular, his round kitchen was created to create the pleasure of a happy home, a dream of his childhood.

His designs are registered not only in Japan, but also in the USA, EU and China, so that he was become renowned in the kitchen business field where rectangular designs are standard.His hobbies are contemporary art and playing piano. An enthusiastic artist, he once held a personal exhibition of abstract paintings, but now concentrates on his designs. During the construction of the Karuizawa Gallery & Salon in 2007, he bought a French “Pleyel Piano” loved by Chopin. Since that time, he has been holding his series of “All Chopin Concerts” in Karuizawa, performed by professional pianists several times a year.
