Nice to meet you! My name is Keitaro Takata. In January 2018, I resigned from my long-held position in welfare services and returned to my hometown of Fukuyama City in Hiroshima Prefecture. There, I learned from a local priest that the traditional industry of âBingo tatami-omoteâ production was on the brink of extinction within a few years. With guidance from the elderly predecessors, I have spent two and a half years learning and now produce "Bingo igusa" (the raw material for traditional âBingo tatami-omoteâ) and manufacture âBingo tatami-omoteâ.

Tatami (igusa) is highly absorbent, making it comfortable even during the rainy season. It also has antibacterial properties, which help purify the air in the room.
Additionally, tatami has a relaxing effect, creating a sense of a Japanese atmosphere just by being in the room. Over time, as one grows more attached to it, it calms the mind, representing a unique aspect of Japanese culture.
Among these, tatami made with âBingo tatami omoteâ is more durable than regular tatami. As the years pass, it develops a silvery luster, showing a different appearance from when it was first laid.
Additionally, âBingo tatami omoteâ is thick and cushioned, so it can soften the impact if small children fall.
The history of âBingo tatami omoteâ is profound, dating back to 1347. At that time, it was considered synonymous with straw mats and was known as âBingo mushiroâ.
Records show that in the six-story castle Oda Nobunaga built in Azuchi, tatami was laid on each floor, and in the room prepared to welcome the emperor, "Bingo tatami omote" tatami with ornamental edges called âungenberiâ and âkouraiberiâ was used.
Many historical figures, including Toyotomi Hideyoshi, also held the historic "Bingo tatami omote" in high regard. We want to preserve this significant cultural heritage for future generations!

The last remaining producer of âBingo tatami omoteâ is facing the threat of extinction!
When I ventured into this world, there were only two elderly individuals left who carried on the tradition of "Bingo tatami-omote" production. Soon after, due to physical challenges, one of them decided to retire and passed on their aging equipment to me.
And now, the other individual has also fallen seriously ill and can no longer produce, leaving me as the sole producer.
Under these circumstances, what should I do to pursue the essence of "Bingo tatami-omote" and continue cultivating rush grass and manufacturing tatami-omote?
I have considered what I can do at this moment.
If things continue as they are, this traditional value will soon be lost.
By having people who understand its value use it with care, I want to preserve it for future generations!!
To achieve this, the immediate priority is to repair, maintain, and update the old equipment I inherited.
Whether for repairs or introducing new machinery, the equipment used for cultivating igusa and producing tatami omote is specialized and therefore expensive. Additionally, the recent decline in the use of Japanese-style rooms, especially those with natural igusa, has made it increasingly difficult to cover these costs through self-effort alone.
I want to gather funds from everyone to firmly continue the cultural heritage of "Bingo tatami omote."
I also wish for more people to learn about "Bingo tatami omote" and become co-preservers of the beauty of Japanese tradition.
I believe that this will help preserve the rich culture of Japan.

We will be sharing our daily activity reports on SNS (Facebook and Instagram) for all our supporters!
We will include a QR code and address in our thank-you letters.
Depending on the amount of your support, we will send you a "Enza" ("Uzu" or "Tobi," whichever you prefer) or a coaster-sized "Enza", all made from "Bingo igusa".
For those who are interested, we can also arrange a study tour about the culture of igusa, as well as a special agricultural experience, upon consultation.

Thank you as always, Keitaro!
And I think this challenge was especially difficult since you weren't accustomed to it.
In the scorching sun and the rain, you faced the rushes in the rice fields during the day, put your adorable children to bed at night, and worked on the project late into the night. Now, you finally have the opportunity to deliver your message to everyone.
I want to start by saying "Congratulations."
Thank you, everyone, for reading this project up to this point.
Keitaro has dedicated himself to preserving traditional culture by entering the world of rush farming, seeking guidance from his seniors, and conducting extensive research. He has been striving alone for the past six years.
His craftsman spirit and serious dedication result in products that are beautiful in both fragrance and color.
I sincerely hope that as many people as possible will experience the beauty of his Japanese craftsmanship.
We would be extremely grateful for your support, even with a small contribution. Thank you for supporting the project.

Your understanding and support will help to preserve and pass down the historic "Bingo Tatami-omote" to future generations.
Tatami-omote (tatami) maintains moderate humidity and has air-purifying properties.
I believe that lying down on a tatami mat, with its pleasant aroma and texture of igusa, brings a sense of calm and relaxation.
The "Bingo Tatami-omote" has a silver-white sheen and thickness, making it more durable than other tatami mats. Its color and luster improve with age, allowing one to enjoy and appreciate this process over time.
I am wholeheartedly dedicated to inheriting and continuing the legacy of the predecessors who preserved the historic and traditional "Bingo Tatami-omote." With great care, I cultivate and manufacture these tatami mats using traditional methods.
Please, everyone, lend your support to the valuable "Bingo Tatami-omote."
I humbly ask for your kind cooperation.
