ABOUT OUR CUSTOM SHOJI SCREENS
Traditional Japanese Craftsmanship, Tailored for Modern Spaces
Custom shoji screens and doors have long been admired for their ability to combine function, tradition, and beauty. Rooted in centuries-old Japanese architecture, these sliding panels—made from wood frames and translucent washi paper—offer a unique way to divide or soften spaces while inviting in gentle, filtered light.
​
At Imoshen Studio, we specialize in crafting custom shoji screens and doors that elevate your home or commercial environment. Every piece is meticulously made by hand using traditional Japanese woodworking techniques, including kumiko joinery. We source high-quality softwoods that closely resemble Hinoki, a prized Japanese cypress, and use authentic washi paper to ensure durability and authenticity in every panel we produce.




Handcrafted with Precision and Purpose
​
Rooted in centuries-old Japanese joinery methods, our shoji screens and doors are made using carefully selected softwoods that closely mimic Hinoki—Japan’s revered cypress. We use authentic washi paper for its soft diffusion of light, lending each piece a warm, tranquil presence. These materials, combined with meticulous craftsmanship, ensure your installation is both beautiful and built to last.
​
Many of our custom designs feature kumiko—the intricate, hand-carved latticework traditionally found in high-quality Japanese interiors. This detail adds visual depth and texture while preserving light flow and privacy. Each element is carefully joined by hand, without nails or screws, reflecting our deep respect for traditional techniques.
