Focusing on furniture design, Taiji Fujimori collaborates with architects and works on product and space design. In recent years, he has been working on a wide range of products, from custom-made furniture for public facilities such as libraries, to high-brand products, offices, and children's furniture for elementary and junior high schools, aiming for a new way of furniture design that goes beyond scale and boundaries. He has received numerous awards, including the Mainichi Design Award nomination and the Good Design Special Award. In 2019, he released his book "The Work of Furniture Designer Taiji Fujimori" (Shokokusha).

HOSHINA is a furniture brand that the founder, who learned the idea of modern furniture and the way of comfortable living while in Italy, started developing in Japan in 1969. We continue to make original Japanese products while incorporating the sensibilities of each era into universal values. The basis of manufacturing is the idea that people play a leading role in life. Furniture is a supporting role to enhance the individuality of the resident, and is an indispensable "tool for living" to create a comfortable space. Hoshina, the founder, learned from his roots in Italy that cherishing furniture with attachment leads to cherishing his life. A simple design that lasts long. Designed with attention to detail in ease of use, safety and durability. It can be maintained and repaired decades after purchase and can be used for generations. We will deliver products of reliable quality that satisfy all of them, and propose a rich lifestyle for each customer. This is the philosophy of 〈HOSHINA〉 that has never changed since its founding.
