English	The beautiful organic form attracts people who touch it. Each piece is carved out of solid wood with Japanese hand tools. The body is composed of many curves, and this chair has many curves in pursuit of seating comfort. No matter how you sit, you will achieve the utmost in seating comfort. In today's highly mechanized world, most furniture is made by machine, but the curves that best fit the body cannot be made by a machine. It is said that the world of manufacturing will become more difficult in the future due to the development of AI, but if we have the power and individuality to constantly create new creations, we have nothing to fear.
Native	必要な機能だけを備えたシンプルな椅子が、いちばん座り心地がよく、いちばん美しいと考えました。これは、とても日本的な考え方です。何度も改良を重ね、たどり着いたのがこのシンプルなフォルム。座り心地はもちろんのこと、無垢材のナチュラルな質感を楽しんでいただくことで、よりリラックスして座っていただけるようにしました。有機的な美しいフォルムは、触る人を惹きつけます。無垢材から日本の手工具で一点一点削り出しています。機能美を追求したフォルムは、見た目の美しさだけでなく、さまざまな座り方に対応します。人間の身体は多くの曲線で構成されていますが、このチェアは座り心地を追求した結果、多くの曲線を描いています。どのように座っても、最高の座り心地を実現します。機械化が進む現代では、ほとんどの家具が自動化された機械で作られています。しかし、人間の身体に最もフィットする複雑な3次曲線は、機械では作れません。一点物のクオリティを持つこの椅子を手作業で量産できることは、他にはない新しい価値だと考えています。日本の職人技の高さが、サステイナブルを実現する。これは「人間力」です。今後、AIの発達により、ものづくりの世界は難しくなると言われていますが、常に新しいクリエイションを生み出す力と個性があれば、何も恐れることはないでしょう。これからのものづくりを輝かしいものに変えていく力は、社会の役に立つはずです。
