N2  - Named with a simple word meaning 'cloth', NUNO is one of Japan's most important textile-design companies. Founded in 1984 by the legendary Junichi Arai and the company's current director, Reiko Sudo, it is recognized as one of the world's most innovative textile producers. Known for weaving together tradition and cutting-edge technology, NUNO designers are inspired by the past, present, and future, integrating unexpected elements, such as paper or feathers or aluminium, with industrial methods, such as spatter-plating and chemical etching. All NUNO textiles - more than 2500 have been created - are produced in Japan and are usually the handiwork of an individual craftsperson. Each bolt of cloth has a story to tell. Though their textiles appear regularly in books, textile exhibitions and museum collections, a comprehensive NUNO monograph has not existed - until now
