About US

9 + 1 is a Japanese creative studio, dedicated to exploring new possibilities at the intersection of craft, design, art, and technology.

Drawing on influences ranging from traditional Japanese craftsmanship to advanced fabrication techniques, we create innovative products and artworks that blend material sensitivity with contemporary expression.

Our practice focuses on reimagining how traditional knowledge and modern technology can coexist, giving rise to new forms of creativity.
