Kyoto's Timeless Paper Crafts: Kyo Hyogu and the Art of Origami

Kyo Hyogu is a traditional craft of Kyoto with origins dating back over 1,000 years. It involves reinforcing and decorating paintings and calligraphy with paper or fabric, creating pieces such as hanging scrolls, folding screens, and sliding doors (fusuma). These works combine aesthetic appeal with durability and preservation, and the refined beauty of the craft, nurtured by Kyoto's culture and environment, flourished in contexts such as the tea ceremony and temples.
Origami, another art form with a history of over a thousand years, involves folding paper into shapes representing animals, plants, and geometric patterns. Originally spreading through gift-giving customs, origami became a widely enjoyed pastime. Today, its elegance and structural ingenuity have found applications in modern science and design.

Origami Paper Lamps: Kyoto's Kyo Hyogu Paper Craft Meets Modern Innovation

Innovative Craftworks is a pioneering small business in Kyoto that blends the 1,300-year-old techniques of Kyo Hyogu with cutting-edge modern technology. Their frameless "Origami Lamp," crafted from washi (traditional Japanese paper), is realized through the application of Tsukuba University's origami program and the exceptional skills of artisans in "backing" (urauchi) and "folding" techniques. These lamps feature a unique origami-inspired design that produces warm, shadowed light, offering both beauty and functionality. Despite using only paper for the shade, the lamps deliver a harmonious blend of aesthetic appeal and practicality, bringing a fresh perspective to interior design.
