Eager to create more opportunities for people to freely enjoy the arts,
HANDSON run our own musical performance projects in addition to planning,
developing and promoting educational tools.
Japan has a strong culture of artistry based around paper, as represented
by the well-known art of origami. HANDSON wanted to develop products
which would allow more people to experience and engage with these art
forms.
HANDSON's PePaKuRa paper modeling kit allows users to recreate the functional
and structural beauty of musical instruments using only paper. In order
to faithfully reproduce the kinds of elegant detail found on the original
instruments, the PePaKuRa kits were developed by merging skilled design
with the perspectives of the professionals involved HANDSON's musical
performance projects.
