Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kitten; brown paper packages tied up with string—these are a few of my favorite things.

It’s hard to believe that Julie Andrews wasn’t talking about Japanese design when she sang those famous lines. From Hello Kitty’s adorably drawn whiskers to novel gift-wrapping solutions, Japanese designers are synonymous with inventing and reinventing products that are simple and beautiful, leaving legions of devotees clamoring for more.

This week at Felissimo, see what all the commotion is about as Japanese design is lauded in all its manifestations. From a clock disguised as a shopping bag to a humidifier fashioned as a large doughnut; from high-tech solar speakers to a straightforward collection of wooden chairs, (offered for the first time in this country exclusively at Japan C) each product offers New Yorkers a chance to enhance their life with the pervasive trio of style, ingenuity and elegance that defines Japanese design. Come over and check out what Japan has to offer—I promise you will leave with a new list of your favorite things.
