I feel that today’s design is expected to provide substance.If you become too conscious of the superficial elements in your pursuit for a Japanese design,then it often becomes an awkward design.But if you have a better understanding of the roots of manufacturing and the backgrounds of how that item came to be born,then it should give you a different picture.I think Japanese items that fit into these modern times will then be created more naturally.
I want to make things in such a way that everyone involved in the item,including the people making it and the people using it,will all be happy.There is an underlying presence of history,skills,craftsmanship,and tools for everything,but it’s naturally quite difficult to sense such things.And if you think about the global environment,now is an era where unnecessary things shouldn’t be produced at all.That’s why as a creator I want to convey such messages,while cherishing the process at the same time.And by sensing such things,I think the feeling of treasuring something will come to the user too.But that doesn’t mean that the background of making things is the sole paramount factor either.After all,the impact of the appearance is crucial,as it won’t even be picked up if it can’t attract people’s attention.Because we live in an era with a lot of products,I want to make things that would make people want to pass it down to others in the future.
