The Kizara Project employs surplus wood from sustainably managed Japanese red pine plantations to produce their distinctive stationery. Their environmentally considerate approach procures trees from local forests undergoing thinning, a crucial aspect of sound forestry practices. By converting a perpetually replenished resource into a wood product, Kizara bolsters both the national forestry industry and the trees that this industry—and indeed, the global ecosystem—relies upon. This highlights how thoughtful design can contribute to a positive environmental impact.
