About Spacecurve

Tokyo-based Spacecurve is an integrated venture capital and product development company. We believe too many objects in our world are out of balance: beautiful things devoid of usefulness, useful things devoid of beauty. Our mission is to cultivate products that truly excel in both, and drive their joyfulness to the max: in furniture, software, food and beverages, and fashion.

PSI, one of our flagship projects, designs and manufactures lamps bursting with the most exuberant life force of their kind – lamps so cute you wish they could speak, so lavish they could be the centerpiece of a K-pop music video, so dreamy they make you want to fly. We’ve modeled our design process after the world we want to see: deeply optimistic, free of limiting beliefs and ruthlessly optimized for fun. Would you like to work with such a team?
