akiko stuart
Welcome to my site.  My name is Akiko Stuart. I was born in Tokyo, Japan. I came to Australia for my education. I first studied for a B.A. in Archaeology and later I gained a Post Graduate qualification in Museum Studies.  After my education I worked as an assistant fashion and interior stylist in Tokyo. From that experience I gained an appreciation for and an understanding of fabrics. I enjoy mixing and working with different patterns, colours and materials.  I am inspired by the colours of Australia and I appreciate aspects of Japanese cultural traditions. Each of my products is created with a focus on individualized production to maintain their uniqueness and sense of workmanship. All pieces are made using natural materials, some new and some old. I create them one by one using my hands.  I would appreciate others sharing these hand-made crafts.  I work from home in a work space having create in my lounge room. There I sit in my comfy arm-chair looking at all my favourite things and listen to music while working.
