About
He subsequently founded Nendo in his parents' garage in Tokyo. He has said that "Design is about making decisions. A person can only make a certain amount of decisions each day, and it's really important to keep your mind empty."
Sato also mentions in several interviews that meeting Issey Miyake had a significant influence in his work and practice.
His first exhibition, called "Streeterior", was introduced in Tokyo and then in Milan, Italy in 2003.
Sato has received several prizes such as Good Design Award, German Design Award, Elle Deco International Design Award, and was named the "Designer of the Year" by Wallpaper magazine in 2012.
