This is an art studio for Kazunobu Nakamura to create design. The studio that designs spaces such as installation art and interior design. I work with themes of movement and flow created in space by irregular shapes, such as Japanese screen paintings and Japanese gardens. The ideal of my work is a rich space created by irregular shapes. The Japanese garden has an amorphous element such as a pond that reflects light on the water surface and creates a cool scenery at its center, and the changes in space created by the amorphous shape characterize the surrounding place and give expression to the entire space. The undulating, asymmetrical path that surrounds it invites people. Beautiful trees filled with the wind cover the road, creating a tunnel of green shade that creates an indescribable sense of depth to the light-filled place at the end. Also, Japanese screen paintings various natural shapes with dynamic brush strokes in a space that should be empty, bringing a richness of space to life. Various forms of nature such as trees have been loved the indefinite form that creates beautiful spaces. Pouring rain, Old pine tree covering the air, Clouds adorning the sky, Mist and Fog. Their shape has the power to rich the space. These motifs of organic forms of nature, with their irregular shapes and dynamic brushstrokes, create a flow in the space and beautiful depth and expanse.Contact : [email protected]

"A river flows, falls, swells, into the ocean."
The flow of a river. It begins as a waterfall on top of a mountain, flows down violently, undulates, and spreads out over the calm surface of the sea.
I want to express the grandeur of such a river's flow and its various expressions in a single space, and create a space where visitors can throw themselves into the flow and feel as if their bodies are entangled in it.
I attempted to create a spatial experience that would allow visitors to throw themselves into the flow of the river and feel as if their bodies were entangled in it. This is the kind of spatial experience that Japanese folding screen paintings aim for, in which the life of the river is confined to a single space.
