The speed of change makes you wonder what will become of architecture.

Japanese traditional architecture is created based on these conditions. This is the reason you have a very high degree of connection between the outside and inside in architecture.

I would like my architecture to inspire people to use their own resources, to move into the future.

Japanese architecture is traditionally based on wooden structures that need renovating on a regular basis.

All architecture has a public nature, I believe, so I would like to make a public space.

When you look at Japanese traditional architecture, you have to look at Japanese culture and its relationship with nature. You can actually live in a harmonious, close contact with nature - this very unique to Japan.
