Entry Description

We created a place of open exchange and co-creation.
Inspired by Kaisho, a form of cultural communication once existed on the land of Nara,
we envisioned a place for the local society and people from around the world welcomed to visit, meet and have conversation.
It is meant to be a place of awakening for new generations and where the valuable initiatives of the past are passed on to the present and to the future, nurtured by the environment of Mori.
