Fragile Design

　I often have a comment for my work like it’s sensitive. One day,

however, I had an another one like it’s fragile. I'm glad to hear

the latter one.

　I live and work in a traditional Japanese house, where the old

construction of laundry is equipped on the first floor's roof. The

steel flame is rusted, dilapidated, and its form is slightly bent.

And only some plastic boards remain on the floor, as some of

them are swept out by a strong wind. So if I once come into the

place, I must concentrate in paying attention to the brittle, pale

plastic and the rusted steel. I think this place is so beautiful that

I feel materials and myself at every step. In other words, here is

the place where I feel environment including myself fragile.

　Something "fragile" suggests to me "the worry of changing", but

it doesn't cause my pesimistic observation alone. The dialogue with

something "fragile" causes me to have "the pleasure of changing",

I'm convinced.
