An adaptive-reused project for a fishing port market place. Students used bicycle-drawn carts to collect more than 3000 donated items,from display pieces to furnishings and furniture. The intervention was little more than painting the building the color of Himi Black tiles.

Origin Part IV – foster in Nantan, Kyoto by BCXSY

Saturday, April 20th, 2013

Article source: Boaz Cohen & Sayaka Yamamoto ( BCXSY )

Foster is comprised of three series of crafted objects and is the result of our collaboration with Ibuki, a non-profit organization based in Sonobe, Nantan-city, Kyoto prefecture. Ibuki is a group of young master craftsmen from varying disciplines with the common goal of preserving Japan’s traditional crafts through education and practice. During our time in Sonobe we worked with two wood craftsmen, Kenta Kuzuhara and Kozo Sumitani, and one ceramicist, Hiroshi Nagai. Our desire in this collaboration was to develop design concepts that would challenge the skill set of each craftsman, while remaining pure in the aesthetic value and practical in use.
