I work in California in the millwork industry, and we’ve built the Apple, Google, and Facebook headquarters interiors. We use some of the highest technology machines available. The craftsmanship, joinery, and spiritual depth that Abo-san exemplifies is of much higher quality. I only wish there were such possibilites here. Thank you for allowing us to see this content!

The problem with our industry (at least here in America) is that it frequently places quantity above quality. That's not to say you can't make something beautiful with a time constraint, as I'm sure we both have. But we have to be willing to sacrifice dollars for sense sometimes when excellence is demanded.

I'm no carpenter, but at around 50:00, they're hammering in the beams - how do they compensate for the wood expanding/shrinking during the seasons?

@colinchesbrough5772 28 күн бұрын

@wnose I'd have to go back and look, but if they're centered on the piece, expansion holes are less necessary. It's only as you travel out on the piece (like breadboard ends), that it's more critical to put expansion gaps for movement

I already watched the short version of "Kigumi House" a hundred times. I really share the philosophy of building and architecture of Akinori Abo. Anyway I just want to say thank you and I really hope that someone will publish the books of him some day in english. (or german)

Thank you Abo-san for making this superb documentary. You are truly a Master at your craft.

Wow, this was indeed a treat. Thanks Abo-San for making this beautiful video. I am in my mid 60s, retired military doctor and I wish I could live in a house like the one you just built for the rest of my life. I started woodworking as an hobby, love it and I am excited about learning more about Japanese joinery. Just divinely gorgeous. Have a blessed and Prosperous New Year 2025!

Wow it's incredible how much info was packed into a 1 hr video. No mumbling, no organizing just straight to it and they didn't even have to learn English. It's crazy how they work so much and don't even have big muscles, all that mass must be too much on the body. I'm still curious why Chinese/Asians usually don't have a lot of muscle mass, I'm sure some of them want to body build.

I love the way that hand tools are valued much more than machines which is not usually the case for many UK cabinet making and joinery companies.

I had the chance to discover this lovely documentary in Paris presented by the director. It was a pure pleasure to see the interest here in France for the japanese woodworking culture. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you very much for the wonderful film, the impressive interior views of the houses and for the eye-opening insights into the carpenter's work. My heartfelt respect for his attitude and his work! And by the way: nice to hear a little of Brahms on the piano at 3:50... 😊

I have no idea what the cost of this house is but I would happily trade my three-times-as- large mass produced home for this one. You can literally hear the quality of the build when Master San speaks in the completed home.

Used to Japanese house are like this, but 1965, Sekisui, Misawa Home maker which is manufactured house company grew up . As cost performance they use vinyl cloth for the wall, aluminum frames and doors, eliminate wood, sand, soil materials to use. All house materials are simply made from plastic and aluminum without insulation and modern heating systems. Then what happened ? Lots of condensation bring the black mold inside cause windows, doors, shutters are made from Aluminum which has high ratio of conductivity. Looks are a pretty western style home and quickly build and government supported to loan for to chose manufacturing house. Periodically traditional home builder , carpenters are gone especially in the big city. We lost the skill and resources which are natural be able to breathe adoptable to the climate. Just air tight home with mold. 1990’s I introduced insulation and double pain windows with 2x4 system but most of the people didn’t have a knowledge about insulation, even carpenters. I am glad Abo’s house and his team, appreciate the wooden structure.

Awesome skills and respect for the natural material to create a living space of functionality and character, based on traditional values that go back centuries, sadly,highlight the shoddy impermanent house fabrication construction methods, of our 21st Century civilisation.

I am very interested in Mr. Abo's monologue towards the end of the video and his conclusion that carpenters should not design. I wonder what kind of education he has went through. Did he study architecture as well as carpentry? Because it seems like he is doing the exact opposite of his statement. In the beginning he is designing the house as well as doing the carpentry.

The mallet/hammer you used at the start, what is it called? I’ve been trying to find a Japanese hammer to use with my Japanese chisels but not sure which one is the best or at least ideal.

Anyone knows what kind of pencils do they use?

@nanako88 2 ай бұрын

@@vaitranquilloarmadillo9774 Japanese pencils’s body is skinnier than American pencils. But pencil lead has Variety of thickness from 3mm to 1.8 mm. Artist use thicker one for drawing, Architect use thinner one to be precise line. Keep it sharp like a needle. When I was grate school sharpened 5 pencils and placed in pencil box with eraser, scales , folding knife everyday. Folding knife are for to sharpen them cause sometimes it went round at school . Cause Japanese one letters has many strokes. Nowadays we have a little sharper fitting into pencil box. No more hassle to use knife.
