ISHITANI - Making a Kigumi Bed - no glue, screws, or nails -

wood : 檜 (Japanese cypress) / アオダモ (Japanese Ash) The joint of the bed body is called “ 腰掛け蟻継ぎ (stepped dovetail joint) “. This kumite(joint) is used in traditional framework construction methods, and has been used for posts and beams that support houses from ancient times to the present day in Japan. This time, Ishitani arranged the depth of the dovetail for the bed and adopted it. We also use the same cypress wood that is used for the pillars of the house. It’s built without glue, nails or screws, yet sturdy. The finish paint is walnut oil. ベッド本体の継手は「腰掛け蟻継ぎ」と呼ばれるものです。この組み手は在来軸組工法の建築に使われ
