What is “Nipponscape”?
Nipponscape is a new web magazine founded by a former editor and a former designer from legendary PingMag MAKE. (*PingMag started out as a project by IMG SRC in 2005.) We walk the country, visiting people who are devoting themselves to making and doing things. Together with our team of wonderful and highly skilled friends, we bring the remarkable stories behind Japan’s makers and doers to the world.

Join us in listening to their stories!
