TRUCK (Truck)

A furniture store in a quiet residential neighborhood. In 1997, Norihiko Kise and Hiromi Karatsu opened it in Tamatsukuri, Osaka City, to create the kind of furniture they themselves wanted, free from passing trends. It moved to its current location in 2009.

The store creates furniture that values the natural character of each material, such as wood, leather, and iron, with unpretentious designs made to be used for many years in everyday life. Even the leather and fabrics used for upholstery are all original. Knots, cracks, and rough parts of the wood are intentionally preserved, and one of the features is that the pieces develop more character the more they are used. Each piece of furniture is made to order after an order is placed.

In addition to furniture, the store also sells a variety of items such as T-shirts, bags, glasses, and key chains. There are also unique items such as training goods that combine leather and wood.

The space itself is also worth noting, as the trees on the grounds, the brick walls, and even the building were all created by the owners themselves. There is also a café across the street.
