In Japan, when making Buddhist statues, a technique called "machete splitting" is used to split the wood without breaking the fibers of the wood. This time, I focused on the roughness of the cross section of the wood.

日本では仏像を製作する際、木の繊維を壊さずに木材を割り裂く「鉈割り」という技法を使います。 今回その木材の断面の荒々しさに着目しました。 表面材は機械で平坦に研磨するのが一般的ですが鉈割りで生れる木の断面に生命力を表現する事に成功しました。

寺院建築の構造を取り入れたテーブルです


<p></p>



<p>日本の寺社建築に使用される伝統的な木造組物、升（ます）と肘木（ひじき）による枓栱（ときょう）をモチーフにしたデザインです。一手先、二手先、三手先、</p>



<p>… 屋根の持ち出し構造をそのまま造形に反映しました。寺院の宮殿、須弥壇、厨子の木地を専門に作る京職人、宮殿師の手作りによるホゾ組の工法は組立・解体が容易に出来ます。家具は大量生産、古くなれば廃棄する事が多いですがKU-DENは将来、修復も出来、永く使い続ける事ができるので、ＳＤＧＳ的とも言えます。また木の素材そのものの美しさを引き立たたせるため、あえて塗仕上ではなく木地自体を最終仕上げ日本の伝統建築を思い起こさせ、モダンな佇まいと精緻な木組みのディテールは、温かみを感じさせつつ、凛とした本物の良さを伝えています。</p>



<p>The design is based on the traditional wooden structure used in Japanese temple and shrine architecture, the tokyo, made of masu and hijiki (elbow wood). One, two, three and three techee…<br>… the roof&#8217;s lift-out structure is directly reflected in the form. The hozogumi method of construction, which is handmade by Kyoto craftsmen and palace masters specialising in the woodwork of temple palaces, shumidan and kitchens, allows for easy assembly and disassembly. Furniture is often mass-produced and discarded when it becomes old, but KU-DEN can be repaired in the future and can be used for many years, making it SDGS-like. In order to emphasise the beauty of the wood material itself, the wood itself is finished with a final finish rather than being painted, reminiscent of traditional Japanese architecture, and the modern appearance and exquisite woodwork details convey a sense of warmth and dignity, as well as a genuine quality.</p>
