Workshop for Creating Aerodynamic Vases
In an exciting collaboration, Torafu Architects Inc. and Takeo Paper Co., Ltd. are set to host a series of workshops where participants can create their own "air vase" - elegant, self-standing structures made from a single sheet of paper.
The workshops, open to individuals of all ages, will take place throughout June. Here's a rundown of the schedule:
- Wednesday, June 6: 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM
- Friday, June 8: 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM
- Sunday, June 3: 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Each session will last approximately one hour and will include a demonstration, a presentation on Takeo Paper Company and its history and products, a selection of 50 different colored papers, and a group photo.
Torafu Architects, known for their innovative design projects that often explore the use of materials such as paper in creative ways, developed the "air vase" concept in collaboration with Takeo Paper Co., Ltd., a major Japanese paper manufacturer. The "air vase" emphasizes simplicity, sustainability, and aesthetic appeal.
Workshops typically focus on paper craftsmanship and functional art, allowing participants to experience the design firsthand.
