pirkamonrayke is a project brand that combines Sasaki Crafts with numerous Japanese production centers to suggest new possibilities in Japanese manufacturing. We share technologies and materials as we competitively work together toward the same goal. We produce things not from individuals, but from the connections we form with each other. We don’t help each other, we better one another.

We learn the importance of producing something to be proud of and expecting the same of our partners. Good work cannot be produced from compromise. Cooperation and competition, co-production and collaboration, people and people, materials and materials, regions and regions. These meetings will produce surprise and value as never seen before. When the fascinating artisans and production centers all over Japan unite, stereotypes and differences will be cast aside, opening doors to a new world. “pirkamonrayke = Doing Good Work” Connected by one truth, we overcome together.
