OUR PROFILE
RUGMATAG was established in November 2021 as the first tufting studio in Western Japan.
In March 2022, we will open a tufting specialty store in Morinomiya, Osaka, which will be a rare tufting shop and studio on a global scale.
With the cooperation of several long-established rug companies in Japan, we offer a wide range of tufting suggestions, from tufting to create authentic rugs to tufting as art.
Additionally, they are engaged in a wide range of activities, including producing decorative items for major department stores, collaborating with artists and brands, and even exhibiting their works at tufting art exhibitions overseas.
We also focus on supporting tufting artists and hosting tufting contests, as well as working to spread the appeal of tufting.
The origin of the store's name, "RUGMATAG," came from an experience when the owner felt it was too precious to step on the first rug he made, and ended up stepping over it.
It is filled with our desire to share the excitement and joy of that moment with all our customers.
Vision
We aim to create an environment where the culture of home tufting becomes more widespread in Japan, and where more people can enjoy making original rugs.
1. Create an environment where many people can easily obtain the equipment and materials necessary for tufting without stress.
2. Create an environment where you can explore various types of tools and materials needed for home tufting.
3. Let as many people as possible know the joy of tufting.
RUGMATAG = straddle the rug = straddle the rug
We want to convey a free idea that transcends the concept of a rug.The technique of tufting, which we were fascinated by, is the charm of a rug as a rug, and can be used to decorate a room by decorating it like a picture on the wall, or by using existing objects. It was a technique that stimulated the imagination and gave a feeling of freedom and infinite possibilities, such as creating things that had never been seen before with ready-made products. I started this shop with the desire to make this technique easy to understand for artists and those who want to start expressing themselves.
We will work hard to make Japanese tufting not just a fad, but a culture.
I also hope that Japan will produce many rugs that will amaze the world.
I would also be happy if I could convey the appeal of rugs to as many people as possible, and contribute in some small way to the Japanese rug industry and manufacturing in Japan.
