Modern Millwork with Soul —
Traditional Elegance for Modern Homes
Inspired by the natural elegance of the West Coast, our millwork pairs Japanese precision with clean, modern design.
Thoughtfully crafted to complement light-filled, minimalist spaces, each piece brings quiet warmth, texture, and a sense of intention.
We collaborate closely with architects and designers to create custom elements that elevate both form and function—timeless, tactile, and deeply considered.
Japanese Craftsmanship, Designed for Modern Life
At Hirokawa Joinery, we create timeless pieces of Japanese woodwork — designed to bring calm and simplicity into modern homes.
I'm Kyoichi Hirokawa, a trained Tategu artisan from Japan. My work is rooted in centuries-old techniques like kumiko and shoji, but reimagined for contemporary spaces.
In a world of mass production, I believe in slowing down. Every piece is handcrafted with care, using traditional methods and sustainable materials. The result is not just furniture or fittings — but a sense of connection.
To nature. To your home. To yourself.
Now based in Squamish, BC, I blend Japanese precision with the beauty of West Coast wood, creating bespoke joinery for people who value quality, design, and authenticity.
Good design isn’t loud. It feels right.
That’s what I aim to create.
