Now, shall we reclaim Japanese culture?

I want a simple, beautiful, modern chair. I want a chair that feels warm and comfortable against the skin when touched. I want a sturdy chair that can be used for a long time and is gentle on both people and the environment. There are people who held similar aspirations—an admiration for high-quality and beautiful design—over a thousand years ago. They are the craftsmen known as "Hida no Takumi," who honed their skills as temple carpenters in the capital. They created beautiful buildings that are simple, robust, and make the most of the material's charm, passing their techniques back to their hometown, Hida Takayama. The delicate traditions of Japanese culture are preserved here and continue to thrive today. Nisshin Mokkō is committed to creating modern furniture in Hida Takayama, where the spirit and skills of these artisans are deeply alive. In a blessed natural environment, modern furniture is created by craftsmen who have inherited traditional techniques, fitting perfectly into contemporary urban spaces. A chair born in the greenery of Hida enriches and comforts the living spaces of people in the city... The joy of this transformation is likely not so far removed from the joy of craftsmanship felt by the artisans of old.
