While watching the construction of the famed Imperial Hotel in Tokyo an idea was inspired for a famous wood product we all know. What is it?

I assume that you are talking about the 2nd incarnation of that Hotel by a rather well known architect. A former president contributed something to the product as well.

Did the former president Bill mentioned contribute the name of this product?

Thanks, but I can't take any credit here. Mine was just a SWAG based on Bill's clue about a former President.
