ÅBEN — Issue 006

Meaningful products, for life.

Issue 006

Issue 006 (The Japan Issue) explores an appreciation for the utilitarian, as shared by the Nordics and the land of the rising sun. Discover a culture of everyday design, trace the ever-evolving silhouette of streetwear, learn about upcycled marine plastic and seasonal influence, see Tokyo’s forgotten walls, and consider how working from home has changed our relationship to sound.
