Rebranding that inherits the founder's "tradition" and challenges "innovation"
Kitcho is celebrating its 80th anniversary. We assisted with the rebranding project for HANA Kitcho under the direction of Kyoto Kitcho's third-generation owner, Tokuoka Kunio, who is taking on the challenge of innovation while carrying on the traditions of founder Yuki Teiichi. <br /> <br /> The design concept was "modern Rinpa." Through collaboration with various artists, including washi paper sculptor Horiki Eriko, plasterer Hasado Shuhei, and moss and bonsai artist Kobayashi Kenji, we were able to create a space that has undergone bold changes while still maintaining the founding spirit.
