自然の切り取り方|How to cut out nature|2020/09/01

暑いのでカキ氷が食べたくなった。徳島市街のちょっと郊外に美味しそうなお店があったので、車で出かけた。一面田んぼの中にお店と工房があった。四角い建物だけど中からの景色がよかった。単なる田んぼも建物の中から見ると緑あふれるリゾートに来たように見える。陰影で一層趣深くなる。カキ氷も一層洗練されているように思えてくる。(実際美味しかった)建物そのもののデザインも大切だけど、それでどのように自然を切り取るかで場の価値が変わってくる。(絵と文:サカキテツ朗)
It was so hot that I wanted to eat shaved ice. There was a delicious restaurant in the suburbs of Tokushima city, so I went out by car. There was a shop and a workshop in the rice field, which was a square building. The view from the inside was good. It looks like I have come to a resort full of greenery. The shade makes it more interesting. Shaved ice also seems to be more sophisticated. (which was actually delicious) The design of the building itself is important, but the value of the place changes depending on how nature is cut out. -Text and illustration by Ted Sakaki
