Culture, art, and design from Japan have been fascinating to thousands of people all over the world for centuries. Few, however, are lucky enough to live in Japan – even for a short period of time -, to enhance their lives with authentic things Japanese at home, or to learn a traditional Japanese art or craft from inside. We at Shofukan Projects are thrilled by Japanese arts, crafts, and aesthetics, too. And we intend to deliver it right to your front door.

Design and construction

We focus on bringing you rare, high quality products and services, straight from Japan – focused around the areas where we all dwell most of the time: the house and the garden. Creatively designed, carefully constructed, delivered on demand and according to your wishes. Our Japanese gardens have been established and flourish all over the world. Our Japanese houses and buildings embellish areas and lives in Japan and the Netherlands. And elements such as tsukubai, stepping stones, or sculptures are used by many across the globe. Read more…

Workshops, clinics, lectures, training, demonstrations

If you want to experience the outer flow or inner complexity of the Japanese arts and crafts themselves, we offer workshops, clinics, or demonstrations in just about any classical or modern Japanese discipline. We work for private individuals, huge international companies, and everyone in between. People and organisations come to our home base – the Shofukan in Rotterdam – or we come to them. Moreover – Shofukan Projects empowers and inspires your teams with the teachings and wisdom of Japanese arts and crafts – right where you think we can assist your company. Let us know what you have in mind, and we’ll deliver according to your wishes. Read more…
