61 The head office of CondeHouse with our development, administrative and marketing divisions is located in Asahikawa, Hokkaido, next to the factories. We also maintain close ties with other factories for certain types of specialty work. Flexible and consistent production is assured through small-lot production using a system that covers every step from acquiring materials to machining, assembly, and shipping. This system also offers customers the advantage of quick turnaround on custom orders and other special orders. About CondeHouse CondeHouse was founded in 1968 by Minoru Nagahara, a furniture craftsman and designer. He began his career as a furniture craftsman at the age of 15 and spent about three and a half years for training at a furniture factory in Germany, a design center in the world at the time. He was shocked to find that European furniture made from Hokkaido oak was being exported all over the world as high-end furniture. After returning to Japan, he established Interior Center (now CondeHouse). Inheriting this spirit, CondeHouse has since its establishment been committed to manufacturing in Asahikawa, Hokkaido, one of the leading furniture production centers in Japan. We believe the aesthetic sense nurtured by the nature of Hokkaido and Japanese culture is embedded in our design and manufacturing. Working with designers in Japan and abroad, CondeHouse has been uncompromising in its product development, and will continue to propose a life and work style with wooden furniture that can be used with love for a long time.
