Yoshinobu Izumoji

IZUMOJI YOSHINOBU

Representative of EKAM LLC | Regenerative landscaping, civil engineering & ishibadate construction

Through years of hands-on experience on landscaping and civil engineering sites, and his encounter with regenerative construction methods, he became convinced ofthe potential of building in accordance with nature's principles. He has studied traditional ishibadate construction and applies it to contemporary architecture and landscape work.

His wide-ranging experience includes land regeneration through restoring the underground flow of water and air, landscape-making with traditional dry-stone masonry, and architecture in harmony with nature using ishibadate construction. In 2025, the ishibadate house he built in Yakushimareceived the international IDA Design Awards 2025.

He created this course to pass on that systematized experience and knowledge and to nurture the next generation of ecological restoration practitioners. The course covers not only the techniques themselves but alsothe know-how to turn them into a viable business.
