Mr. Iemasa Yamabata, supervised by Tsugaru Kogin-zashi and design of "Tsugaru Nanayuki Kamakura"

Kogin designer from Aomori prefecture. He encountered the Tsugaru Kogin-zashi pattern in Hirosaki when he was in high school, and after that he launched “kogin.net” to convey the charm of Tsugaru Kogin-zashi and started his career as a writer. At KAI Tsugaru, the techniques and patterns of Tsugaru Kogin-zashi are also used as guest room interiors. Based on the charm of traditional patterns, the original design that makes full use of unexpected materials and colors attracts interest in Tsugaru Kogin-zashi and makes a strong impression.
