WORLD SPICE PROJECT / OUR POINT OF VIEW
A world of flavor.
An ongoing project.
RESEARCH / EXPLORATION / COLLECTION
Collecting flavor.
Collecting stories.
We discover, collect, and document spices from around the world. The flavors, cultures, and histories of a place, brought into everyday life in Japan.
Spice Your Everyday.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PROJECT
To know a place,
start with a person.
For WSP, discovering the world begins with meeting people. We want to listen to the people who live in a place, as well as learn its name.
This photograph comes from Kubota’s personal archive. It represents the curiosity about people that we want to bring to our future exploration of spices.
