While various everyday objects are concentrated on smartphones and we spend more time staring at the screen, I feel great joy in touching tangible things, owning them, and coloring my own space. For better or worse, I believe that breaking away from the stimulating world through a screen, and suddenly raising your eyes and feeling the real world in a relaxed manner will lead to mental stability.
Based on the belief that the power of things is necessary for such a future, in July 2023, we established PLA STUDIO, LLC, a company that develops original products. We value the "compactness" that allows you to decorate even the smallest of the house and the "touch comfort" that allows you to enjoy the happiness of holding it in your hand.
And when you make something, you always have a "responsibility" with it. I joined a manufacturer as a new graduate, and I saw a large amount of unsold products being disposed of. Even if they are told that they don't need it, they desperately sell to customers, reduce the price to less than half the price, and even then, there are miserable products in this world that do not sell and just put pressure on the warehouse and are thrown away at the end of the list. When I was thinking, "I want to make things, but I don't want to make useless things," I turned my attention to 3D printers. 3D printers take more time and money than ordinary factories mass-produce products with molds, but they have the great advantage of being able to make things from a single piece. Our motto is "Make only what you need, deliver it only to the people who need it."
