TAKATINA is a NY based husband-and-wife design consultancy led by Takaaki and Christina Kawabata and committed to make built environments that bring meaning to a place.
TAKATINA’s affinity for discovering different cultures through extensive travel and research have helped them develop a cultivated eye for proportion and details in the design and selection of materials that are sumptuous in texture and color. Over the last ten years, their works explore a sharp vision of space and light while retaining a feeling of warmth.
Through analysis and contextual approach embracing the essence of built forms, the practice is a creative endeavor to achieve design that is elegant, powerful, and above all timeless.
