Designer
Kazufumi Suzuki was born in 1979, and after working for an interior design firm and a construction firm, he believed that "designing" and "manufacturing with hands" were the same thing, therefore he went independent in 2010. He develops and constructs primarily commercial domains such as restaurants, untangling "communication with people (clients), places and materials," "inspiration from nature," and "unique culture of people and places (country)." He is fascinated by the distinctive Japanese culture of the retail street known as "SHOTENGAI," and has run a restaurant on the shopping street in Shoin Jinja, Setagaya Ward, since 2010, bringing life to the Shoin Jinja shopping street and gaining media attention. He was mostly involved in projects throughout Japan, including "ONIBUS COFFEE Nakameguro" and "ABOUT LIFE COFFEE BREWERS Dogenzaka" in Tokyo, "TANIGAKI" in Hyogo Prefecture, and "Butter no Itoko" in Tochigi Prefecture. He is currently working behind the scenes in interior design and construction in cities around Japan, even across national borders.
