Tokyo University of the Arts 130th Anniversary "Gai Daichakai 2017"
Tokyo University of the Arts Waiting & 130th Anniversary Exhibition Space Design

Hashimoto was in charge of the space design of the waiting space for the large seats of the arts and the exhibition design of the materials related to the Tokyo Fine Arts School, which is the event for the 130th anniversary of Tokyo University of the Arts.

The waiting room for the large seats is a space where you can wait while watching the exhibition of the chashaku made by the teachers of the Graduate School of Fine Arts. The forest in the Ouchi area, commonly known as the Oku no Hosomichi, is scanned by Professor Risaku Suzuki of the Department of Advanced Art and Expression, and printed on kraft paper, which is an inexpensive material, on the entire wall. I thought I would feel it. I exhibited it with respect, imagining that it was a tree that had been watching over the land for over 130 years. On the front of the room, the title "Therefore" written by Dean Katsuhiko Hibino was printed on kraft paper and arranged. Beside that, we had you decorate the wind furnace front sword and jujube of Professor Yuji Tezuka, a professor of Japanese painting who is also the founder of this tea ceremony.

If you are a university student, you should sit in a drawing chair (box chair) where the waiting people sit, and be aware of the connection with the large plaster room, which is the next large seat in the arts. did.

It became a space created by collaboration with many teachers' works, and we made a luxurious collaboration.
