Manufactured by skilled artisans
AREA furniture is mainly produced in long-established factories in five representative furniture production areas of Japan: Fuchu (Hiroshima), Okawa (Fukuoka), Hida-Takayama (Gifu), Shizuoka (Shizuoka), and Asahikawa (Hokkaido). Since our products require a lot of manual work, they can hardly be manufactured by mass-production furniture makers pursuing high efficiency. Therefore, our products are made at reliable factories, which can process everything from start to finish: from purchasing materials, properly drying the timber, converting the timber, processing, polishing, assembling, and coating. Although production takes time, we deliver our customers quality furniture that will endure for a long time that is definitely worth the wait.
New designs created in contemporary Japan, not mere nostalgia of Japanese design
AREA’s allure includes expressions by various designers (e.g., furniture, architecture, traditional crafts, and fashion), which also pay respect to traditional designs around the world that have been passed down. AREA products are made by incorporating creative designs. We develop home décor products based on an annually selected concept, and present them to the world.
