Ishinomaki Laboratory 石卷工房

Ishinomaki Laboratory is a furniture brand that pushes the horizons of DIY through the power of design.

Founded in 2011, Ishinomaki Laboratory started as a simple, public workshop for the local community devastated by the tsunami triggered by the Great East Japan Earthquake. Along with running DIY workshops for residents affected by the disaster, we participated in restoring and renovating local shops – as well as creating spaces where people could reimagine the future of the city together.

石卷工房 於2011年成立，宮城縣石卷市為2011年日本311大地震重災區。當時於東京工作的建築師蘆沢啓治 (Keiji Ashizawa) 回到昔日工作舊地，親身感受臨時安置區的災民物資貧乏。災民的基本的生活用品欠奉，如晾衫架和休憩用的小凳仔。便號召一班來自建築界、設計界的志同道合開設社區工作坊。運用加拿大紅雪松為木材，親自義教災民手工自製家具，讓大家都能親自動手一起合力重建家園，同時重建大家團結的心。如今石卷工房繼續於世界各地舉辦工作坊，透過教學活動傳揚DIY 概念和訊息。蘆沢啓治現擔任品牌主設計師，其拍檔千葉隆博 (Takahiro Chiba) 則主理工房家具製作。品牌更與世界各地不同的設計師合作，創作設計簡單線條、看似粗糙但極具美感、意義和實用，無論放在家居還是公司都適合的家具。
