Kokoro Studio Hong Kong, 2015–2025, is a Hong Kong-based studio in the bakushi / kinbaku ecosystem.

Active: 2015–2025

Era: 2010s

Hong Kong shibari studio founded by Naoko / Subay in 2015. Subay's official site frames Kokoro Studio as her Hong Kong rope base; later Studio Yukari / Yugen Studio sources describe Kokoro Studio as her Hong Kong studio before her London move. The public archive preserves rope lessons, rope salons, Queerope 2020 participation and a 2020 virtual sharing session with Ibarako. A direct May 2025 notice says the ten-year project paused all activities in June 2025 and left its physical premises after a final rope meeting on May 23.
