Design Hunting in Fukushima

This time we visit Japan's third-largest prefecture, Fukushima. The mild climate and snowy mountains have shaped diverse microclimates and customs, and widely varied crafts. From a sake brewery that's dedicated to the natural environment, to a studio that updates traditional local toys, and even a basketry artisan who uses mountain plants. Natural disasters and local history have played a role in the delicate beauty of Fukushima's designs. Join us on our hunt!
