Nagano Interior is a Japanese family company for solid wood furniture — founded in 1946 by Ryozo Nagano (1918–2001) in Asakura City, Fukuoka Prefecture (Kyushu, southern Japan). Ryozo Nagano began furniture production in the immediate post-war period in a barn in Amagi and established the company through his principle of "Miso Koshi" — a frugal, resource-respecting management approach that wasted not a single wood chip. By the 1960s the company ranked among the highest producers in its sector in Japan. Today the company is led by Takahiro Nagano. Guiding concept: "One Order, One Story" — bespoke furniture as objects that deepen and become individual over time. Philosophy: Wa (和) — harmony and balance as an aesthetic and management principle. Integrated production: from wood drying to the finished piece in the company's own factory in Asakura City. F4-Star certification (highest Japanese standard for formaldehyde emissions). European debut: Salone del Mobile Milano 2024.

Designer: Giovanni Levanti.
