idea

"Let's do our best to make it fun!"

We always try our best to make things interesting. We believe that the joy that can be conveyed to our customers is only if we can truly enjoy ourselves, and we are always looking for interesting things.

vision

"Plan to turn all of humanity into craftsmen"

Our dream is to spread the "joy of wallpaper" all over the world. We believe that life becomes more exciting by expanding the possibilities of living.

- Carefully choose what you like from the countless variety of wallpapers and paste it yourself.

- This experience led him to enjoy the culture of transforming spaces with his own hands.

We wanted as many people as possible to experience the excitement of ``changing the wallpaper and seeing the world expand from that corner'' and to become ``artisans,'' which we put into practice with ``All Humanity.'' “Craftsmanization Plan.” We have compiled "wisdom and know-how that even amateurs can do" into the content "Honpo's Readings" so that you can take on the challenge of self-renovation even if you have no experience or knowledge.

Message and Profile of the Representative

Representative Director Koichi Hamamoto

When Fill was first established in 2000, there were very few people in Japan who wanted to put up wallpaper themselves. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of condominiums where you can choose your own wallpaper and rental housing that can be customized with DIY, and it seems like more people are interested in wallpaper than ever before. Even if you ask about it, there are only a few people who enjoy putting up wallpaper themselves.
But it is definitely increasing.
I feel that there are more and more people in Japan who want to ``enjoy life'' and ``enjoy their home.'' Some people become so attached to a room that has wallpaper that they carefully selected and put up with great care that they even lean their cheeks against the wall. There are still many people who do not know the true joy of wallpaper.
Wallpaper is something to enjoy
I want to spread this culture throughout the world.

profile

Born in Osaka in 1972, raised in Osaka. He was a teenager who devoted himself to music as a bassist in a band. He dropped out of high school and gained experience in the field as an apprentice to a cloth craftsman. He became independent at the age of 23. He started his own interior design business, but one day an electrician he met at a construction site asked him if he could put glue on the wallpaper and sell it, which led him to start selling wallpaper.

After the founding of Fill, the first online store we started operating was "Kabegamiya Honpo."
At first, the business centered on selling wallpaper manufactured by manufacturers, but the company now has a wide variety of products, such as flooring materials, paint, and decorative panels, so much so that it can be said that ``Kamegaya Honpo has almost everything you need for DIY walls and floors.'' Now we can handle materials.
Every day we search for items that will bring interesting changes to our lives, and we are currently focusing on developing original wallpaper and flooring products.
