MISSION

KANABI KOGEI+ began as a bold initiative within the Shared Studio of Kanazawa College of Art.
We see craft not as a relic of the past, but as a living force that creates the future.
Across lacquer, ceramics, textiles, metal, and more, fifteen artist–specialists collaborate to deliver singular beauty to global luxury markets.
By intersecting tradition and innovation, merging local resources with international sensibilities, we weave new value.
This is the story of KOGEI+—and the essence of our business.
KANABI KOGEI+は、金沢美術工芸大学の共通工房から始まった挑戦です。

伝統と革新を交差させ、地域資源と国際感覚を結び、新しい価値を紡ぎ出す。
それが、KOGEI+の物語であり、私たちのビジネスの核です。
