Description
| The long-awaited reissue of the famous tape cutter after 60 years... SORI YANAGI ROTARY TAPE DISPENSER Whenever you open a collection of Sori Yanagi's works, this masterpiece [rotary tape dispenser] is sure to catch your eye. [The soft curves unique to Yanagi, also known as "Yanagi curves," create a beautiful form, and its appearance is like a work of sculpture. In fact, every time I see this tape cutter in a photograph, it reminds me of Hans Arp's sculptures. Compared to Yanagi's other items such as butterfly stools and stainless steel kitchenware, this tape dispenser is one of the most enjoyable pieces of [Yanagi Curve]. Designed by Sori Yanagi in the 1960s, the rotary dispenser has been highly acclaimed overseas for its sculptural beauty and easy-to-use rotating specifications, and has been selected for inclusion in the permanent collection of MoMA (Museum of Modern Art, New York). In order to reissue the product under the supervision of YANAGI DESIGN OFFICE, KOKUYO reproduced the design as close as possible to the original by scanning the original in 3D. In fact, the size and form of the original and this product are almost indistinguishable when compared side by side. At the same time, KOKUYO has not only faithfully reproduced the original, but has also upgraded the usability of the product with the latest technology, such as the use of KOKUYO's original "CALCUT blade. Yanagi Sori Rotary Tape Dispenser is manufactured in Japan from the melamine molding of the body to the casting of the base and packaging. The sculptural curves of this special item require time-consuming manual labor by craftsmen to faithfully reproduce, so the number of units that can be shipped at one time is limited. Mr. Yanagi designed the torch for the last Tokyo Olympics. It may be a coincidence that one of his masterpieces is being reissued in the year of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. |

あの名作テープカッターが約60年のときを経て待望の復刻…
柳宗理 ロータリーテープディスペンサー /SORI YANAGI ROTARY TAPE DISPENSER
柳宗理氏の作品集を開くと必ず目に留まる名作「ロータリーテープディスペンサー」。
「柳カーブ」とも言われる柳氏独特の柔らかな曲線が美しいフォルムを描き、その佇まいはまるで彫刻作品のよう。
実際にこのテープカッターを写真で見るたびにハンス・アルプの彫刻作品を思い起こします。
バタフライスツールやステンレス製キッチンウェアなど柳氏の他のアイテムと比べても、このテープディスペンサーは「柳カーブ」を最も楽しんで頂ける作品の一つです。
1960年代に柳宗理氏によってデザインされたロータリーディスペンサーはその彫刻的な造形美と使いやすい回転式の仕様で海外からも高い評価を受け、MoMA（ニューヨーク近代美術館）のパーマネントコレクションにも選定されています。
今回YANAGI DESIGN OFFICEの監修のもとコクヨが復刻を手掛けるにあたり、オリジナルを3Dスキャンすることで極力オリジナルに近いデザインを再現。
実際にオリジナルと本品を2つ並べて見比べてみても、サイズ感やフォルムはほとんど区別がつかないほどです。
それと同時に、オリジナルの忠実な再現にとどまらず、コクヨオリジナルの「カルカット刃」を採用するなど、最新の技術によって使い勝手をアップグレードしています。
柳宗理 ロータリーテープディスペンサーはボディのメラミン成型からベースの鋳物、梱包まで国内で生産。
彫刻的な曲線を忠実に再現するために職人による手作業を必要とし生産に時間を要するため、一度に出荷できる台数も限られる特別なアイテムです。
前回東京オリンピックの聖火トーチをデザインした柳氏。
氏の代表作の1つが2020年東京オリンピックの年に復刻されたのも何かのご縁かもしれません。
