Design your world with color that sticks!
Colors. We live in a world of colors. Squinting at the bright sun passing through tree leaves. City lights twinkling in star-studded skies. The gradation of shadows in the still of the night. How fun would it be if you could just grasp the color around you and express it your own way? Well, we happen to have the answer. It’s called “HARU stuck-on design”.
Design your world with colors that stick!
Sticking, stretching, taping freely. Applying colorful adhesive tapes is so much fun. Name any surface, from walls to furniture, shelves and shop floors, and even artistic installations in 3D. Draw colorful lines to overlay and overlap, sharing and following your senses and feelings, and then removing them without a trace. You can then start over again to create an infinite number of new designs.
A new design tool is born! Over 200 years ago, Goethe experimented with colors and how they could influence our emotions and psyche. And today, we have come up with colorful tapes to create emotionally infused spaces by reinventing the technologies of Nitto that has long been used for industrial purposes including medical and electrical environments.
HARU stuck-on design;
The HARU philosophy is based on 8 color families that allow for new methods of expression. A combination of different colors, patterns and textures never seen before in such conceptual variety offers many new possibilities for creative individuals and professionals. “HARU stuck-on design” hopes to inspire a new way of designing & styling spaces.
A whole new range of colors invented with a new take on design.
Since ancient times, color has fascinated mankind, always influencing us subconsciously and symbolizing our culture in different ways. To evoke and enhance our creativity, we have analyzed and brought together a myriad of colors to play with. Here, our experts have come up with an impressive range of subtle shades and color tones.
The philosophy in our color families. Colors evoke our memories. It has an energizing and stimulating effect on our innate senses. Moreover, our eyes can recognize different shades of light and subtle gradation in brightness. In contrast, small differences can at times dramatically change the impression of the world around us. Taking all this into account, HARU’s 8 color families were composed of those elementary colors engraved in our memories, along with timeless and universally applicable patterns.
deep forest
A forest found deep in our memories.
In all shades of green! There’s the bright green
vibrant underneath the strong sun and the darkest
shade of verde on the verge of turning black. The color of moss hugging a tree trunk is different from green leaves reflecting on the river waters. Since ancient times,
we have always looked to the forest for inspiration.
Here, we have collected a wide variety of greens
from the world around us.
lip stick
Shining lips like luscious fruit.
Red is such a fascinating color.
It has its allure and danger, like an inviting fruit or
the blood of an animal. We have come up with
a variety of reds. Lips painted red,
like the favorite rouge of a legendary actress.
Pink like the welcoming of spring, and a bright mischievous scarlet against tan skin.
We have a variety of reds that highlight our lives.
endless ocean
The ocean shows us endless expressions.
The ocean is like a mother that has nurtured
life on this earth. Clear water changes in appearance depending on how the light shines in;
how deep it pierces through and how the weather tempers with the light. We have all types of blues from the ocean, like its abysmal darkness,
to waves glistening on the surface,
and the foam softly caressing the shores.
bright earth
How the sun shines on the earth.
The sun provides us with life on mother earth.
Its light gives us energy,
and also forms shadows as it reflects
on the sand, soil and water.
Here, we have a wide range of yellows that
shows some of these reflections.
Each color shows us a different type of energy.
dry flowers
A lingering shadow from nostalgic times.
Dried flowers carry an uncertain beauty.
Its faint color is reminiscent
of the times we’ve lost.
The nonchalant passivity in these achromatic
colors inspired this part of our collection.
We chose a unique path by selecting some
subdued tones instead of more saturated colors.
neon candies
A sheer brightness that elates us
These bright colors excite us and never
fail to arouse our emotion.
Although we are used to seeing it at its
maximum color saturation, we were able to explore
the perfect tint, maintaining a strong radiance.
You will find it bright enough even when
the tape is rolled out and sticking.
royal perle
Finding a fascinating and mysterious glow.
The glow has fascinated people since
the history of mankind.
Gold, silver and precious stones have this subtle shimmer, which is sometimes seductive,
sometimes cold. In the process,
we have added more shimmer than conventional products to achieve a texture much deeper
and much clearer.
misty night
Achromatic colors between light and shadow.
Find a profound world you can only see
when no light is allowed to pass.
There is that faint shadow you can only make out when your eyes have adjusted to the dark.
And there’s the misty air that hangs subtle and deep,
and the absolute light that stands out against a purest white. How thick is that range of solemn grey between black and white? You will find that too.
The three materials to choose from.
The essence of this new collection has been made
possible with our technology. Each material influences color, pattern and functionality (easy to come off,
but with a lasting hold). Such functions were made
possible with our experience in developing
various kinds of tapes. So we came up with 3 different materials to meet your different needs.
washi Tape
Japanese washi paper can be thin but quite strong.
By incorporating this material, the tape can be easily torn with your hands, while still enjoying the matte finish
and soft washi texture.
PET Tape
PET tape was developed for markings on hospital and gym-floors. The surface is glossy. Strong adhesive and easy removal without leaving traces reflects our technology.
OPP tape, transparent
Made of material with a washi-like texture, the transparent part blends with the tape below, allowing the beautiful patterns to stand out. A variety of rich expressions is made possible by overlaying tapes of different material. Our technology allows us to provide you with the fine texture and adhesive strength best suited for your needs.
