KOBO TABLE by Karimoku
This table was designed for IRORI, the first shared office built in Ishinomaki after the earthquake. IRORI was opened to Ishinomaki residents and volunteers free of charge as a shared space, and tables were needed for work and meetings. It has a smart appearance, but is very sturdy. The redesign, which incorporates Karimoku's technology, respects this sturdy design while adhering to the company's philosophy of high-quality furniture making, such as "assembling carefully without showing screws as much as possible." The original is unpainted, but the color variations add a fresh impression. Ishinomaki Laboratory was established in 2011 with the aim of earthquake recovery. Even if the memories of the earthquake fade, the lives of the people in the affected areas continue. In order to continue and further develop its activities, Ishinomaki Laboratory has become a collaboration partner that will mark a new step for Ishinomaki Laboratory, with Karimoku, Japan's leading wooden furniture manufacturer. Ishinomaki Laboratory by Karimoku brings out new appeal through the refined construction and modern coloring while taking advantage of the rough and powerful image of Ishinomaki Laboratory's products, by finishing them with Karimoku's high woodworking and painting techniques. This makes it easier to incorporate the products into spaces with different styles than before, greatly expanding the scope of use for the products. Karimoku is working on the issues facing Japan's forests, such as the sustainable and effective use of domestic timber, and the resulting forest conservation and revitalization of the forestry industry. Ishinomaki Laboratory's products are characterized by their design that can be used with any material, based on the original idea of "doing something with the materials at hand." In this collaboration, we will actively use wood that is not normally considered suitable for furniture, such as scraps generated during production at Karimoku's factories, various hardwoods that have not been used much because of limited commercial demand, and wood that has insect bites or holes drilled by birds such as woodpeckers. Ishinomaki Laboratory by Karimoku aims to contribute to a rich society that accepts diversity by utilizing materials that were difficult for Karimoku to use, including the stories behind them, through Ishinomaki Laboratory by Karimoku products. Ishinomaki Laboratory original versions are also available. Ishinomaki Laboratory | Kobo Table Source: https://flymee.jp/
