■ Concept
The concept is that overlapping frames depict not a single answer, but an infinite landscape. Depending on the angle and moment of viewing, a different world unfolds for each person who sees or plays with it. Going beyond design, it becomes a gateway that vividly reflects the future—that is SQUARE.
■ Key features
Incorporating square elements throughout, this kendama fuses a new, modern sensibility with a simple and sophisticated design.
Two types of kendama are available, using a total of seven types of wood. The finish is designed for ease of use, while also allowing you to appreciate the unique characteristics of each wood.
The ball features a square pattern. This makes it easier to see the direction, speed, and angle of rotation, supporting gameplay.
The rims of the cup and spike are made of a combination of wenge and zelkova wood, further enhancing visibility.
The inside of the middle cup is partially hollowed out to optimize weight balance, resulting in a more stable feel.
■ The characteristics of Keyaki (Zelkova)
A representative Japanese hardwood, known for its distinct grain and golden color.
It is strong and resilient, and resistant to cracking.
It has good acoustic properties and is used in drums, furniture, and building materials.
