The 4th installment of the collaboration project “BEAMS EYE on BEPPU” with Beppu City, Oita Prefecture!
2019.09.06
“BEAMS EYE on BEPPU” is the fourth collaboration project between BEAMS and Beppu City, Oita Prefecture.
This time, in collaboration with Beppu City, we worked on the development of "new souvenirs" with 13 businesses gathered through public recruitment.
< BEAMS JAPAN > After repeated exchanges of opinions and prototype creation with buyers, the products completed include a “hot spring confiture” made using the “Jigokumushi” cooking technique that utilizes hot spring steam, coffee beans, and Beppu's representative crafts. In addition to bamboo toys and thorn brushes, we have a diverse lineup that includes introductions to various services that hold the key to revitalizing the town.
In addition, a free paper produced in conjunction with this event, `` BEAMS EYE on BEPPU New Souvenirs,'' will be distributed free of charge at `` BEAMS JAPAN'' stores.
Introducing the "new souvenirs" developed with businesses participating in "BEAMS EYE on BEPPU" over the past three years, divided into six themes: "Town," "People," and "Food Culture." This is a free paper that introduces you to the charm of manufacturing in Beppu, focusing on the stories behind each business and the thoughts of the businesses.
A talk event will be held on the first day of the event to introduce Beppu City's diverse charms, not just hot springs.
