Orihouse: Paper shops in Tokyo The house of Kobayashi-Sensei. A wonderful gallery, and a beautiful shop with lots of paper and also some very good books. Please let yourself known to Mr. Kobayashi. He's a wonderful person and loves to demonstrate some of his folds to you. There's also a factory where they make/paint paper. You can visit this area. He makes and sells a paper I like very much. It's red (or green, blue, purple..) on one side and silver (or gold, copper) on the other side, a kind of thick foil. I make my Tzummarum out of it. Het huis van Kobayashi Sensei. Een prachtige tentoonstelling, en een mooie winkel met veel paper en ook wat erg goede boeken. Stel jezelf voor aan Mr. Kobayashi. Hij is een fijn mens en houdt ervan zijn kunsten te demonstreren.Er is ook een productieruimte waar ze papier maken/verven. Je kan deze ruimte bezoeken. Hij maakt en verkoopt papier waar ik erg van houd. Het is rood (of groen, blauw, paars...) aan de ene en zilver (of goud, koper) aan de andere kant, een soort dikke folie. Ik maak er mijn Tzummarum van.
