Here in Kamado House, a studio inspired by a traditional Japanese kitchen from 100 years ago, you can step inside and experience the daily life of ordinary Japanese people.

"Why was chestnut wood used for Japanese kitchen floors?" "How did people cope with Japan’s humid climate, especially in the kitchen?" "How did they reduce food waste?"

Guided by a host deeply knowledgeable about pre-war lifestyles, discover how Japanese people lived in harmony with nature, not just by observing, but by experiencing it yourself while cooking with varieties of traditional tools in a kimono.

You can choose a simple, functional kimono like those worn in everyday life a century ago.

While Japan is often known for its glamorous culture, such as Geisha and Kabuki, this experience reveals another side of Japanese tradition: one that is not about surface decoration, but about the quiet, genuine beauty that resides within.
