    The spirit of omotenashi: Inside Aman Kyoto’s “Senkutsú”, Secret Forest Teahouse
    Nestled in the forest of Rakuhoku (洛北), Kyoto, a teahouse featuring Sukiyakenchiku (数寄屋建築) architecture has newly opened it's doors at Aman Kyoto (アマン京都). Named 'Senkutsu' (仙窟) by Sen Soshitsu (千宗室), the 16th-generation Grand Master of the Urasenke (裏千家) school of tea ceremony, it is situated beyond a moss-covered, massive stone-paved path. Located in an exceptionally quiet spot even within the grounds, it brings a renewed sense of tranquillity and an air of tradition to the forest garden.

    Kyoto’s Proud ‘National Treasure-Class Delicacies’ Hyotei’s Mukozuke—’Akashidai no Otsukuri’—
    Restaurants supported by people across generations always have a dish called a speciality. Furthermore, if it comes down to ‘devotion to this single flavour’, then that dish is nothing short of a national treasure-class flavour! This project began from the editorial department's admiration of this fact. We will guide you through exceptional dishes filled with the owner's spirit for their speciality cuisine. The first one we will introduce is the Mukozuke (向付), 'Akashidai no Otsukuri' (明石鯛のお造り; Sashimi of Akashi sea bream) from Hyotei (瓢亭). Come experience a culinary journey in Kyoto that warms the heart even more than it pleases the palate!

    Bringer of good fortune, or messy guests? The Two Sides of Japan’s Swallows
    Swallows, which migrate to various parts of Japan with the arrival of spring, are, along with the Uguisu (ウグイス - Japanese bush warbler), birds that make us feel the arrival of the warmer seasons. However, they build their nests, raise their chicks, and take flight once again when autumn arrives. Although they are close to us, perhaps many people feel they do not really understand their true nature? We would like to introduce you to the slightly mysterious swallow.

    The Vessel and the Self: How Prada’s New ‘CHAWAN CABINET’ in Milan Reimagines Our Relationship with Everyday Objects
    On 16th April 2026, Prada unveiled 'CHAWAN CABINET' in collaboration with the artist Theaster Gates. At the heart of the project is the chawan—the traditional Japanese ceramic tea bowl, which plays a vital role in Japanese tea ceremony culture. Centred around specially created ceramic works, this exhibition traverses the realms of art and craft, appreciation and utility, to re-examine the relationship between vessels and people, prompting us to once again question the value found within our daily lives.

    Purification Before Prayer: The Linguistic roots and Rituals of the Japanese Temizusha
    When I visited a shrine the other day, I asked a Shinto priest how to pronounce Temizusha (手水舎), and they replied, ‘Temizusha’. I was quite surprised, as I had firmly believed it was pronounced ‘Chozuya’. The priest went on to explain, "The pronunciation actually varies depending on the shrine." It varies from place to place!? How rather mysterious. Therefore, I decided to look into the Temizusha myself!

    Why ‘cute’ is quite enough: The Legendary, Rare Genius of Nagasawa Rosetsu
    Nagasawa Rosetsu (長沢芦雪) is an Edo period painter popular for his whimsically cute yurukawa style paintings of puppies. Yet, his cute drawingss are only a fraction of his true, radical genius. As the top disciple of Maruyama Okyo (円山応挙), who led a school of realistic expression, he possessed undeniable painting skills, and there are works he painted with strict precision. On the other hand, there are unprecedented anecdotes about him, such as being expelled from the school multiple times... Together with Kaneko Nobuhisa, an art historian who loves ‘cute Japanese art’, we take a deep dive into his profound mastery.

    Collector’s edition of Domon Ken’s Koji Junrei released by Shogakukan with a fresh new look
    Koji Junrei (古寺巡礼) is a work that Domon Ken (土門拳), one of Japan's leading photographers, spent half his life photographing, spanning the pre-war and post-war periods, even as he became reliant on a wheelchair. Maintaining the exact quality of the ultra-large format book SUMO Hon Domon Ken (SUMO本土門拳; a one-metre spread) published by us in 2021, we have re-edited it into a more accessible size and price. This masterpiece, which radiates an eternal light, has been reproduced using the latest printing technology. This single volume conveys the powerful and beautiful charm of Domon's photography. Moreover it is a bilingual book complete with a full English translation!

    The Secret Behind the Perfect Refreshing Red Bean Jelly: Kano Shoujuan’s Mizuyokan Born from Nature’s Gifts
    The Mizuyokan (水羊羹 ; soft adzuki bean jelly) from Kanou Shoujuan (叶 匠壽庵) offers a refreshing smoothness, crafted with rich Koshian (こしあん ; smooth bean paste) and natural Itokanten (糸寒天 ; thread agar). It is said that the secret to its flavour lies in the ‘water’ drawn from the Satoyama (里山 ; managed woodland). Why did they establish their confectionery production base at Sunai no Sato (寿長生の郷)? We investigated why the water circulating through the Satoyama is so delicious.

    Luxurious Dashi Oden, Exquisite Winter Catch, Paired with Perfect Drink: An Evening at Miyuki [‘Kanazawa Oden: Old and New Famous Shops Part 1’]
    In fact, Kanazawa boasts the highest number of oden restaurants per capita in all of Japan. There are numerous specialist eateries open year-round, with some having been in business for over half a century. Blessed with the bounties of both the sea and the mountains, and offering an abundance of local sake, "enjoying a drink over oden" is simply a part of everyday life in Kanazawa. While the oden boom has only accelerated since the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen, the true depth of the city's oden culture is not something you can fully grasp after just one visit. Therefore, we have carefully selected four highly sought-after oden shops in Kanazawa that you simply must try, where locals and visitors mingle in perfect harmony. Weekdays are certainly easier for securing a table compared to the weekend, but visiting later in the evening (for your second stop or beyond) is actually a surprisingly well-kept secret!
