~Pursuing the deformation of Japanese culture
Starting with kimonos that emit Japanese shapes, endless patterns and colors.
Through the "Onshochi-shinka" (renewal from the past) of unique colors, patterns, and designs inspired by various Japanese objects, we seek to bring new life to Japanese culture by remixing different textiles,
By remixing with different textiles, we sublimate them into a contemporary style as if breathing new life into them.
We strive to discover and develop products that incorporate the unique techniques, materials, and good things that exist in Japan.
We are committed to developing products that are sustainable, such as using kimonos, which are a cultural asset of Japan,
We work together with factories that are involved in SDGS, and our products are made by highly skilled factories and their craftsmen.
Commitment to our products
[WABI is committed to the idea that "Japan's sleeping beauty has the potential to transcend national borders.
WABI Creative Director Makiko Niimura has a background in the film entertainment industry,
She has traveled around the world buying and producing films and has come into contact with a wide variety of people, cultures, and lifestyles,
She has always been reminded of the charms and wonders of Japan.
On the other hand, I felt that even the Japanese themselves were unaware of the true potential of Japan and were not making the most of it.
~I have always felt that the Japanese people themselves are unaware of their true potential and are not making the most of it.
I myself am not a craftsman who can create something sophisticated.
However, I can find the skills and sensitivities from an outside perspective that I have cultivated,
I can use my experience as a producer to bring them together.
I believe that the essence of making a movie and creating a good product is the same, which is to combine and edit shining talents (materials).
Japan is a fascinating country that combines tradition, innovation, discipline, and creativity, all of which are opposites.
Inspired by the Japanese culture, we collaborate with creativity from around the world and the wisdom of craftsmen,
We hope to collaborate with creative people from all over the world, and to share the wisdom of our craftsmen and the development of our products with factories that have a high level of development capability.
