Kokuga is a Lisbon-based flower studio founded by Nathan Kunigami.

Half Brazilian and half Japanese, Nathan was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. His relationship with Japanese culture begins at an early age, but it wouldn’t have a stronger influence on his life before his first trip to Japan in 2017. He has always had a strong affinity with flower arrangements, though, since his mother used to study and practice Ikebana. In 2017 he then decided to study Ikebana himself with a Japanese flower artist in Tokyo.

In 2018 Nathan decided to quit his corporate job and fully dedicate himself to his passion. During a three-month sabbatical in San Francisco, California, Nathan had the opportunity to collaborate with two local flower studios, before finally moving to Portugal.

Some of Kokuga's clients so far have been: Prada, Loewe, Shiseido, Four Seasons Ritz, Kabuki restaurant, Vago Bar, Nissan, Moda Lisboa, Moda Portugal, and others.

Kokuga is Nathan's homage to his Japanese background since this is his original family name.
