ISHINOMAKI LABORATORY

A Established with the purpose of building the future one step at a time, Ishinomaki Laboratory was founded in 2011 as a simple, public workshop for the local community devastated by the events of the Great East Japan Earthquake. Starting from a series of DIY workshops aimed at restoring and renovating the community, Ishinomaki Laboratory has since grown into a company that defines a new take on handmade craft.
