I was interviewed recently, and the article has been published. KODE / BasShu's Craftsmanship Starting with Beloved Fabric I answered various questions about the brand's launch, the twists and turns to where it is today, and the countries and places that inspire me. --- By the...
Between business trips, factory visits, and trade shows, I've been quite busy, but then I received something special. The catalog I'd been looking forward to arrived from the printer, and it made me feel at ease. The smell of paper really is wonderful. So, the...
There aren't many places that stock them, but whether I'm in a vintage clothing store or walking through a market, if there's a "patchwork quilt" there, it just shines brightly and immediately catches my eye. I think this feeling resonates with anyone who has a passion...
For work, I've been going to places near the sea and also to Osaka. It's strange how even a short trip away from Tokyo can relax me and re-energize me. --- It's not always about tranquil scenery; I quite like the tense atmosphere on early...
Went to "THE TOWN CRIER" lifestyle shop in Taipei to see the #igusarugs that crossed the sea. It was a great shop. Most of all, the staff all enjoyed working there, and that energized me. #Taiwan #Taipei #BasShu #taiwan🇹🇼 #Taipei #worthvisiting BasShu_japan shared a post - July 8, 2018...
For summer, we've created a comfortable pile blanket. It can be used to ward off the air conditioning on the living room sofa, to casually cover yourself during a nap, or taken to the beach as a large beach towel. You can also keep it in your car for...
While not exactly "eagerly," I've been looking for a living room sofa for about a year now, and last weekend, I finally bought one. More than anything, I'm happy that I was able to make a (big) purchase so pleasantly. This is because my husband is quite...

The French army's folding cabinet was the design motif. Not only is it foldable and portable, the fact that it has "hanging" space is what makes this cabinet so amazing. Initially, I was so impressed with this product that I kept making prototypes, hoping to reproduce it,...
The ABOUT US page, which hadn't changed since the company's founding, has been updated. Leaving it untouched for so long isn't really something to declare proudly (lol), but one of the reasons I finally decided to make the effort to correct it was: The increasing amount of...
We have released a special feature page for the new "Grandad Check" series. We delivered the catalog to our online store members, but the quiet and powerful styling is all wonderful, so please take a look. > View Grandad Check Special Feature Page Regarding this series, I...
I myself don't buy magazines as often as I used to, so whenever there's a new release, I find myself thinking, "Oh, this is out now?" It's how I discover new things these days. Even being in this industry, I don't buy interior design magazines, so I honestly wonder...
Once I find it, I can't get it out of my head, and I end up buying old scraps of fabric. Among them, indigo discharge dyeing, is quite addictive for me. Even though I have similar patterns, just a slight difference makes me want to own it... My...
There's a scene I really love, so I occasionally rewatch the movie "Almost Famous." Actually, when I was creating the OLD FLANNEL series, the vague image I had in mind was William's room from this movie. William, the protagonist, is a boy who's only interested in music,...
As a staple product of the brand, the "made in Izumiotsu" wool blanket has somehow become well-established. Considering the early days when we were just finding our way, it's a great privilege that it has grown into a product used by so many people, and that we can...
While there is a wide variety of quilts around the world, I believe that American quilts, with their primitive and quiet presence, are a better fit for the Japanese climate than colorful and flashy quilts. This season, we have created two patterns of blue and white quilts that were popular...
