"Pantone Inc., a company that predicts color trends for the home furnishings industry, identified wabi sabi-influenced colors like red earth, wood ash and sage green as a key palette of 2003. And in People magazine's 2003 spring fashion hot and not list, wabi sabi was described as "in" and feng shui, the once-chic Chinese art of positioning objects to create positive effects, as "out."'
Whatever. Been there. Done that. Now we are getting ready for Wabi Sabi England (probably late August, Sheffield)
People writing about wabi sabi never seem to mention the impact of Christian misisonaries in Japan on the Wabicha (Tea Ceremony) which impacted wabi sabi. Even Koren, mentioned in this article, makes no reference to it.
