This project represents the enduring and successful collaboration between our Italian atelier and the renowned Japanese architecture firm Nagata & Kitano & Associates. Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, this partnership inspired our workshop’s daily work, allowing us to deeply explore the refined beauty of Japanese aesthetics and cultural heritage.

Featured here are bespoke wrought iron creations designed exclusively for the Hata Family Museum, celebrated in Japan for its mastery in the traditional textile art of kimono. This project highlights the unique fusion between Italian wrought iron craftsmanship and Japan’s rich kimono textile tradition, resulting in exquisite custom ironworks that blend art, culture, and design.

Today, the Hata Museum is known as the Chushin Art Museum, continuing its dedication to textile arts and cultural preservation.
