The work of an architect is mainly client work, but at the same time, I would like to create works that embody themes that are truly important to society.
Just as Hermès was originally a manufacturer of saddlery, the process of developing a single industry has led to the accumulation of know-how and designs that can be applied to other fields, so we started XA as a think tank that expands the appeal of architecture from multiple perspectives.
Don't you think it's a shame that architectural models are only shown at exhibitions and sit in warehouses for most of the time?
I would like to create an opportunity for various people to take it into their hands, so that people who are not usually interested in buildings can feel the charm of thinking about things three-dimensionally and taking on the challenge of new ways of using them.
Architectural design requires very advanced and specialized skills, so I would like to utilize this know-how in various design activities, from products to graphics and UI.
