Overview:
Karakami is washi woodblock-printed with nature motifs and geometric patterns.

Another strives to perfect the world of minimal, beautiful handiwork. Discover how artisans are propelling Karakami into the future through accessories, fixtures and hotel interiors, transcending the world of Japanese aesthetics.
