As mentioned in our previous blog, MITUBACI TOKYO has opened a new store in Sangenjaya!
The first step is to make a decision on the next step!
(For more information, seePlease see our blog here.)
All staff members are currently in the midst of preparing for the opening of the restaurant, which is scheduled for July 1 (Tuesday).
The process of a new space gradually taking shape is somewhat similar to the process of making a ring by hand.
There is a sense of excitement...
The fourth floor of the Sangenjaya Abak Building, which at first appeared to be a dull and inorganic space, is now home to a wide range of carefully selected furniture and interior decorations.
The terrier has gradually taken on a MITUBACI character. We choose them one by one with our own hands,
Creating and arranging. Seeing the space completed in this way, I was reminded once again of how great monodzukuri is.
I think it is a good idea.
In this blog, I, Takada, a new craftsman who joined MITUBACI this fiscal year, will introduce the behind-the-scenes of the construction of the new store, as well as the unique features of MITUBACI.
Here is a small glimpse of the preparation process, which is full of the particularities of the "Mere Old Man". How the usual workplace is created
It is a valuable experience for me to be able to see how the "new" is developing.
We think about what kind of space is comfortable, from the furniture and interior design to its placement, and we try to create a space that is comfortable.
We choose and arrange our own interior design and furnishings. Even just what kind of interior design and where to place the
I felt again this time that the atmosphere of a place and the feelings of the people who spend time there change a lot. The Road
When the furnishings and space feel right, I naturally stand up straight and get more involved in my work. For our clients
It is not only comfortable for us, but also for those of us who work with our hands here every day.
I am trying to get it in order, hoping that it will be.
The store's tools are modified.
In preparation for the new store, the artisans themselves will be making some of the tools used in the workshops and some of the parts to be installed in the store.
The first time I saw the product, I was surprised to see that it was handmade by a handmade artist!
For example, "texture hammers" are used to add patterns to the surface of jewelry, which can be produced ready-made.
For a texture that does not exist, MITUBACI's craftsmen work on the surface of the hammer to make it. techniques to be used in the new storefront.
A senior craftsman showed us how the schermer hammer was made!
The first thing he showed me was the production of our texture, "frosted" hammers.
The frosted pattern has a delicate and pretty impression, but the hammer that applies the pattern uses a thread saw to create the lines.
I will put it in.
The lines that appear to be random are actually very important to achieve the right balance.
They are adjusted in layers.
Next, he showed us the "Stella" hammer policy, a very popular texture in the workshop.
The state of the

It was very nerve-wracking to see them carefully shaving only around it, so as not to damage the

Knowing how the tools we use every day are made is likely to make us even more attached to them.
The anvil used for engraving jewelry was also renewed for the new store opening.
The MITUBACI logo was engraved using a laser lettering machine. Although it is a casual part, the logo

In addition, the brass plates that will be attached to the handles of the glass doors in the new store are also handmade by craftsmen. Brass.
We cut it, engraved the logo, and carefully polished it to finish. How will you decorate the entrance to the new MITUBACI?
I am looking forward to seeing what you can do!
In addition, there are many more items handmade by artisans with great care in the new store.
When you visit the new store, please look for it and ask the staff.
What we value is a place where the time spent handcrafting rings itself becomes a special memory. We are preparing our new store carefully and wholeheartedly to make it such a space.
We look forward to seeing you all at our new location.
