The story behind Motarasu

Motarasu is actually a relatively new brand on the market, which was created back in 2018 by Mikkel Zebitz. But even though the brand is young, they have already managed to create an impressive range of quality products that clearly reflect their philosophy of '' surrounding themselves with beautiful quality furniture and interiors that are specially selected to bring joy. ''

Rather than just being inspired by Japanese design and implementing this inspiration in their products, Mikkel wanted there to be a greater connection between the inspiration and the design. He wanted to change this by putting together Danish and Japanese designers, to create unique designs based on the qualities of both cultures.
