‘gassho’
by Koji Kakiuchi / Yaomitsu designing department, in Iwate, 2011, Japan


Using traditional japanese construction methods, they created a small open-air shelter conceived at a scale of a DIY project, which involves the notion of memory and time. In fact the construction sits on the some remaining foundation of the homes, that were swept away during the March 2011 tsunami. It took only 8 hours to assemble this simple cabin, so people are encouraged to do the same across the area with the goal to provide a space for victims to meet and exchange words about their past, present and future.
