D Born and raised in Los Angeles, Douglas Weber speaks

excellent Japanese. He is the co-founder of Lyn Weber
Workshops (LWW) that manufactures a range of barista
tools with simple, sleek and elegant looks. To people who
are familiar with coffee tools, the LWW brand maintains a reputa-
tion of being the maverick in the machine world of coffee. So is
Weber. Formerly a product designer at Apple, he finds the beauty
of material and manufacturing in Japan. And he decided to move
there and start a career. He made it. If you are a fan of LWW tools,
if you are a visionary or see the importance of new possibilities,
read on. This story will inspire you with probably the most liber-
ating approach to life and work.
