According to Oki Sato, it's what's on the outside that counts. His firm, Nendo, was commissioned by the High Museum of Art in Atlanta to design anything he liked to appear alongside "Modern by Design," opening June 4 with a mix of recent acquisitions from the High's own collection and loans from the Museum of Modern Art in New York. So Sato came up with Visible Structures, seating and tables in foam core held together-not to mention visually transformed-by strips of black heavy-duty tape hand-applied in lines and crosses.
