The Atelier

Hi, I am Mugi, founder, designer, and maker behind Evermugi.

Born in Japan and raised in Alabama, my life has been shaped by living in between cultures, roles, and identities. Returning to Japan felt like standing in two places at once. Neither fully home, yet both deeply familiar. Over time, I learned that I did not need to choose one identity over another.

Evermugi atelier is that in between space.

It is a small studio dedicated to creating warm, thoughtful objects. The work begins with fabric and paper, materials I return to when I need grounding and calm. Color is always part of this foundation, used with care to bring quiet joy into everyday living.

Everything here is made slowly and in small quantities, with attention to material, use, and longevity. This is not a fast moving shop. The atelier exists as a quiet place to share objects and the process behind them.

Evermugi is for those who value warmth without excess. Whether you are exploring the pieces we have made or simply following the process, thank you for being here.

Let us move gently into what is next.
