Design Statement

I design your relationship WITH nature. "tono" is a word that means "with" or "relationship" in Japanese. We will create a good relationship between nature and people through buildings. Humans are a kind of microbes that live on this earth.If the earth of this planet is kept healthy by microorganisms, what can humans do? And what can architecture contribute to?Based in Yakushima Japan, We design "Regenerative Architecture" that enriches the environment by utilizing the fungi.
