i {heart} work : KREIS (jp)

as humans i feel that we are always in need of 'more' or 'better', but does this equal to true happiness? more expensive cars, bigger houses, the latest technology... i think in some ways yes, it does create a sense of well being, but sometimes i believe that the lines are blurred between acquiring material goods in ones life because it is needed vs want. i think that many goods are produced by various people/companies to enrich people's lives in a positive way and that it's important to purchase value goods instead of mass produced disposable goods. i myself have been trying to be more mindful of my goods collection and purchase things that truly add value to my life, whether it be for inspiration, daily use, or positive emotions.

artikel by kreis is a line of goods that fit into all 3 categories i look for when looking into purchasing products. simple, thoughtful and elegant, each piece allows for one to enjoy the item on many different levels. within their ideology it states that:

... through their designs and products, to be thankful for the meetings we have in our lives, the paths that cross together, our circle of people and hope that it continues to prosper.

i love companies that are inspired by the connections of human x human relations. i believe that the encounters we have in our lives help cultivate us to become the individuals that we are today.
