NEMAGARI PROJECT

2026 | Okazaki, Aichi | Okazaki Hinoki / Naturally Curved Timber | Research

NEMAGARI PROJECT — main

This project explores new ways of using naturally curved timber that is often undervalued due to the difficulty of processing it. By capturing the unique shape of each piece and incorporating it into digital design, the project seeks new possibilities for making use of irregular local timber. 製材の難しさから価値が低く見られがちな根曲がり材に、新たな使い方を探るプロジェクト。一つひとつ異なる材の形状を捉え、デジタル設計に取り込むことで、不定形な地域材を活かす可能性を探ります。
