Nendo presents inside-out Hyouri lanterns at virtual Life in Vogue exhibition
Japanese studio Nendo has teamed up with Vogue Italia to showcase its Hyouri collection of reversible traditional paper lanterns that seem to swallow parts of themselves .
The collection, made by traditional Kyoto paper lantern manufacturer Kojima Shouten, will be on show at the Life in Vogue exhibition that takes place virtually on 13-18 April.
The collection is a take on traditional Kyoto paper lanterns
Normally, Kyoto lanterns have a structure made from a bamboo frame that consists of ring-shaped bamboo strips with ends fixed with washi paper.
For the Hyouri collection, rather than binding the ends tightly to each other, multiple bamboo strips were bound with washi paper but some slack was left to create joints, which enabled the lanterns to be turned inside out.

Computers are good at answering questions. Whatâs the shortest route from my house to Area 51? Is 8,675,309 a prime number? How many teaspoons in a tablespoon? For questions like these, theyâve got you covered.
There are certain innocent-sounding questions, though, that computer scientists believe computers will never be able to answer â at least not within our lifetimes. These problems are the subject of the P versus NP question, which asks whether problems whose solutions can be checked quickly can also be solved quickly.

There are certain innocent-sounding questions, though, that computer scientists believe computers will never be able to answer – at least not within our lifetimes. These problems are the subject of the P versus NP question, which asks whether problems whose solutions can be checked quickly can also be solved quickly. P versus NP is such a fundamental question that either designing a fast algorithm for one of these hard problems or proving you can’t would net you a cool million dollars in prize money.
I m a PhD student at the University of Washington where I am advised by Anna Karlin and Shayan Oveis Gharan. I graduated from Oberlin College and Conservatory in 2016 and spent some time in industry before coming to UW in 2018.
I mainly study approximation algorithms. Recently I have been using ideas from combinatorics and the geometry of polynomials to help analyze algorithms for TSP.
