PLYWOOD Laboratory

PLYWOOD Laboratory is the factory brand of distinctive plywood products created by Takizawa Plywood, a long-established maker in Hokkaido.

Their work centers on Paper Wood, a material made by laminating coloured paper between layers of ply. The result is a clean and vibrant cross-section that brings a quiet sense of playfulness to everyday objects.

Each piece is crafted in Asahikawa, one of Japan’s most respected furniture-producing regions. PLYWOOD Laboratory works closely with both Japanese and international designers, creating items with a unique presence that stands apart from standard plywood goods.

The company remains committed to producing and processing its materials within Hokkaido, ensuring quality, consistency, and a direct connection to the place where each product is made.
