Begin your experience by meeting your guide at the venue, a cultural space and traditional craft showroom located in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan. Learn about Kumiko, a traditional Japanese woodworking technique in which small pieces of wood are fitted together by hand to form intricate geometric patterns, without using any nails. Using a carefully prepared kit, assemble the wooden pieces step by step with support from your guide, so that even complete beginners and first-time visitors can take part with confidence. Cover the full process, from assembling the pieces to gluing them together and finishing the surface with sandpaper, allowing you to enjoy the entire act of crafting with wood. Inside the space, authentic Kumiko works crafted by skilled professional artisans are also on display. Viewing these works after creating your own coaster offers a deeper appreciation of the beauty and the level of craftsmanship involved in this traditional art form. After the crafting is complete, relax with Japanese tea and a light sweet, taking a quiet moment to unwind after focusing on the detailed handwork.
