Monocircus is a design atelier and an online store based in Japan, run by Kazunori Takeishi and Shing Ee, Lim.
Based on the key concept of seeking a lifestyle enriched by Art and Design,
Monocircus aims at developing various forms of products within the paradigm of lifestyle design,
that are not constrained by scale,
ranging from accessories and small items to be worn, to furniture, public art, interior and architecture design.
Since the founding of Monocircus,
3D printing technology was particularly made a focal point for its possibility of realizing complex designs and forms
that were not possible to be realized by hand. With materials such as nylon plastic, stainless steel and silver,
3D printing technology was utilised to produce a varied series of original items.
To date, Monocircus has created a multitude of fashion accessories with the concept of ‘wearable’ Art objects
and since its beginning in 2011, Monocircus has been featured in local and foreign media, gained popularity from its online business,
and has been actively involved in numerous market events held in major departmental stores and exposition events.
