For details about the fair, visit here.About this workshopDiscover the beauty of handmade washi—traditional Japanese paper—whose delicate textures reveal their full depth when illuminated.In this hands-on workshop, the designers of Cream on Chrome guide participants in crafting their own lampshades using original washi sheets. Thanks to its special fibre structure, washi offers ways of modelling that are impossible with regular paper. Using a lamp design template, participants can get creative by matching different washi types and learn how to apply new and traditional methods of refinement. Under professional guidance, every participant will finish a custom-made, functional lamp to brighten up their home.Along the way, the designers share insights from their collaboration with papermakers in Japan’s Iwami region, reflecting on how this centuries-old craft embodies perspectives for a sustainable, resource-conscious future.Open to designers, creatives, and anyone curious alike, this workshop invites participants to explore washi’s sensual tactility and timeless design potential.About Cream on ChromeCream on Chrome is a Rotterdam-based design studio, specialising in multi-sensory experiences and storytelling. During a 2019 artist-in-residence, they formed a lasting collaboration with Japanese washi artisans, exploring how the materiality of traditional crafts can inspire new technological aesthetics and interactions.The ongoing exchange led to the publication of “Washi Futurism”, together with design duo Craft Portrait. This hybrid sample book dives into the craft’s history, ethics, current developments and potential for the future.Cream on Chrome was awarded the Dutch Design Award and the STRP Award for Creative Technology in 2022.Cream on ChromeWebsite l Instagram l FacebookVisit here for more information about the MONO JAPAN Fair 2026. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/rotterdam/glowing-washi-—-crafting-lamps-from-japanese-paper/100001975364194481 - **Event Categories**: art, workshops, storytelling - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Ftickets-glowing-washi-crafting-lamps-from-japanese-paper-1975364194481 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 95, max: 95, currency: EUR ## Event venue details - **city**: Rotterdam - **state**: ZH - **country**: Netherlands - **location**: Nieuwe Instituut - **lat**: 51.9146308 - **long**: 4.4709485 - **full address**: Nieuwe Instituut, 25 Museumpark, Rotterdam, Netherlands ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Stichting MONO JAPAN (https://allevents.in/org/stichting-mono-japan/19948582) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/b9a988d734104a468e0d5acad1846017ead6a86e84309cc6a23fa25590d36aa2-rimg-w1200-h600-dc746660-gmir.jpg?v=1766920745 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/c37d589f0c347153c0f0f0da84f87f8bb651460534e12222ac44cc995ebf73aa-rimg-w400-h400-dc74665f-gmir.jpg?v=1766920744 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sat, 24 Jan, 2026 at 04:30 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Nieuwe Instituut, 25 Museumpark, Rotterdam, Netherlands - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 95 up to 95 EUR - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Stichting MONO JAPAN - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** art, workshops, storytelling - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Glowing Washi — Crafting Lamps from Japanese Paper ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Glowing Washi — Crafting Lamps from Japanese Paper", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/b9a988d734104a468e0d5acad1846017ead6a86e84309cc6a23fa25590d36aa2-rimg-w1200-h600-dc746660-gmir.jpg?v=1766920745", "startDate": "2026-01-24", "endDate": "2026-01-24", "url": "https://allevents.in/rotterdam/glowing-washi-—-crafting-lamps-from-japanese-paper/100001975364194481", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Nieuwe Instituut", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "25 Museumpark", "postalCode": "3015 CB", "addressLocality": "Rotterdam", "addressRegion": "ZH", "addressCountry": "NL" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "51.9146308", "longitude": "4.4709485" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Create your own washi lampshade and discover the beauty of traditional Japanese paper at the MONO JAPAN Fair 2026!", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "EUR", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2026-01-24", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "95.00", "highPrice": "95.00", "price": "95.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/rotterdam/glowing-washi-—-crafting-lamps-from-japanese-paper/100001975364194481" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/SoldOut", "priceCurrency": "EUR", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/rotterdam/glowing-washi-—-crafting-lamps-from-japanese-paper/100001975364194481", "price": "95.00", "name": "Glowing Washi Workshop + Fair Admission Ticket" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Stichting MONO JAPAN", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/stichting-mono-japan/19948582", "description": "About MONO JAPAN FairMore than 70 Japanese participants have exhibited since the first MONO JAPAN Fair in 2016, taken place at the Lloyd Hotel Amsterdam.
