Originally built on reclaimed land, Kurashiki was up until the mid 1800s a village that grew cotton, which is more resistant to salt than rice is, and enjoyed a thriving trade in cotton products. However, as a new social system was emerging in Japan in the late 1800s, Kurashiki had no industries to speak of apart from being a distribution center for rice and cotton. When it was hit by high taxes, floods, and epidemics, Kurashiki fell into poverty with few employment opportunities.
Trading, installing and repairing of metal rolling machinery, metal moulding & pressing machinery, flat glass processor, turning machinery, and industrial robots. Kurabo established the Kumamoto Development Center (now the Kumamoto Office and R&D Center, in Kikuchi, Kumamoto). The site develops and manufactures highly functional resin products for use in semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Kurabo completed construction of the Tokushima Plant , a facility furnished with the latest environmental equipment for developing and carrying out dye processing.
Also, please note that visitors are not allowed to enter the Benesse House Area in a chartered bus without advance notice. ☆Tsuyoshi Ozawa Slag Buddha 88- Eighty-eight Buddha statues created using slag from industrial waste at Teshima , 2006※Temporarily unable to view due to construction at the premises. Our company scale allows us to manufacture various and “only one” products.
When he donated the house to the city, he named it Shinkeien, the pen name used by Koshiro for his writing. It is open to the public for tea ceremonies, wedding ceremonies, tourism events and much more. At the foot of Yuishinzan Hill stands an unusual two-storied building called “Ryuten,” constructed at the end of the seventeenth century and used as a rest 外壁塗装 house. The quaint structure has no walls and only thin pillars on the first floor, while six rocks of beautiful colors are scattered throughout a water channel that runs through the center of the building, with wooden floors on both sides. Viewed through the pillars from inside the building, the garden is as beautiful as a painting on a folding screen.
The warm, dry climate of the Inland Sea coast is ideal for growing oranges. The last of the three most scenic spots in Japan, Itsukushima, also known as Miyajima, is an island in Hiroshima Prefecture. Famous for its torii gate, which stands in the bay, Itsukushima Shrine became a World Heritage site in 1996. Imabashi between the Ohara Museum of Art and the Former Ohara Family Residence & Yurinso was rebuilt by Ohara Magosaburo at his own expense in preparation for a visit by the Crown Prince in 1916. The Imperial chrysanthemum crest and the dragon engraved on the handrails of the bridge were designed by Kojima Torajiro.
Machiya Traditional townhouses with clay tile roofing are disappearing. To preserve them in them in Kurashiki, the Kurashiki Machiya Trust restores historical buildings and turns them into guesthouses – like Onsaka no Ie – a great alternative to staying in a conventional hotel room. Modern facilities and a contemporary design blend into traditional interior, make experiencing Japan both comfortable and unique. Onsaka no Ie stands on massive granite blocks arranged like a castle fortification that bear witness to a long history. Inside, however, the atmosphere is light because of wood and paper walls and the high, sloped ceiling with exposed beams.
We invited 9 artists who work on various materials such as bamboo, ceramic, Japanese lacquer, glass, iron and acrylic. Their untiring challenges to the materials, technically and as an expression, may give one a glimpse of cutting-edge in relation with texture of art. Please enjoy the bold yet delicate expressions of the artists from upcoming to the international prestige. Kurabo president Magosaburo Ohara decided to build a hospital so that he could take care of his employees, who numbered almost 10,000.
He also couldn’t bear the fact that there were insufficient medical facilities to treat local residents who had contracted the Spanish flu, which was sweeping through western Japan at the time. Kurabo Central Hospital opened with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment and staffed by highly skilled medical personnel. Dedicated to providing the very best care, the hospital boasted facilities including a greenhouse where patients could enjoy seasonal flowers. Built at first to care for Kurabo employees, it soon opened its doors to all citizens requiring care. This teahouse in the sukiya style accommodates a modern table area next to a more traditional large room with a shoin-style display unit, creating an authentic and less formal setting for enjoying matcha tea.
Under the copper-tiled roof, there are smaller rooms equipped with all the necessary utensils for a chanoyu session. The building was designed by the most prominent tea house architect Emori Nahiko (1902–1992), whose work includes the tea house of the Japanese embassy in Washington D.C. Yurinso was a second house built by Magosaburo so that his sickly wife could live with the family while enjoying peace and quiet. Depending on the angle from which it is viewed, the roof tiles shine green, which evokes the roof tiles on Confucius's Mausoleum, which Kojima Torajiro saw when he visited China.
By thinking outside the box, we turned a negative into a positive—eliminating pollution while creating an environmentally friendly waste treatment system. This system not only solved Kurabo’s problem of how to treat sludge in plant wastewater; it also launched our start as an environmental plant manufacturer. We went on to successful developments like the KISCAM system for removing dioxins from exhaust gas and an in-water treatment system. We continue to develop basic technologies to help customers achieve the most environmentally friendly plants. The Technical Research Laboratory was established as an in-house, independent technological research institute in order to secure research equipment and facilities and human resources.
Among the 4,000 items in the museum's collection are ceramics, handblown glass, rugs, fancy mats, straw jackets, woodblock prints, wooden crafts and other folkcrafts. Around the museum are traditional-style Japanese houses and shops selling traditional crafts such as pinwheels, mobiles, handmade paper objects, bizenware pottery, and wooden toys. It is worth the time to seek out the Kurashiki Spinning Works, an old textile site. Featuring Renaissance style, this was designed by Yakushiji Kazue and built to house the Daiichi Godo Bank Kurashiki Branch in 1922.
The site paves the road to Kurabo’s future by bringing together engineers from various fields who collaborate using state-of-the-art testing and evaluation equipment. The center also links with the development divisions of Kurabo and its group companies to drive the creation of new businesses. The biotechnology boom arrived with the ability to handle genes inside test tubes. Research institutes everywhere began extracting genes, but at that time it was still all done by hand. Gene extraction was a delicate process that had to proceed with the utmost care, and many researchers had to take significant time to carry out this menial work.
Torajiro studied art in Europe and wanted to give students in Japan the chance to see Western art, so he purchased European paintings with the full support of Magosaburo. The works he brought back, including Monet’s Water Lilies and El Greco’s Annunciation, had a huge impact on Japan at that time. Looking to steer the company towards diversifying its synthetic fiber business, Magosaburo established Kurashiki Kenshoku Co., Ltd. (now Kuraray Co., Ltd.) to get into the field of rayon, a chemical fiber. This Noh theater in a traditional style has all the authentic features from a cedar-bark roof in the hip-and-gable style to an all-cedar stage platform. The painting on the stage wall is by Matsuno Hideyo, a renowned artist of Japanese painting.
