Isaki Kasahara
Isaki Kasahara works at Toshi Landscape Inc., a comprehensive landscaping company based in Ebisu, Shibuya, Tokyo, where she is active across a wide range of tree-related fields including planting management, tree diagnosis, and planting consulting. The company handles over 500 projects a year — from private residences to condominiums, office buildings, and public green spaces — with a specialist team led by certified tree doctors managing every stage from planning to completion.
In graduate school, Kasahara researched plant secondary metabolism and metabolic biochemistry, and the scientific eye she cultivated there — elucidating what cannot be seen — combined with her hands-on field experience, gives her a uniquely informed perspective. Drawing on her deep knowledge of trees and landscapes, she hopes to share with an international audience the living traditions, aesthetic sensibility, and profound relationship between people and plants that Japanese gardens embody.
She lives in Tokyo, Japan.
