Charity Box for Japan @ Milan Design Week 2011

Charity Box for Japan @ Milan Design Week 2011

Just Received from Tomita Kazuhiko ( tomitadesign )

“This year is historical 50th anniversary of MilanoSalone, however 3-11 Japan Catastrophes made Tomita feel really different about it. The concept of Design for happiness is becoming more to question ..   What Design Does for those people, How to be a Designer a Japanese, a Human being in this situation. No question gives no answer. ”

お世話になっている皆さま、For my friends,

ミラノサローネ50周年という記念すべき今年。

けれど3-11大震災-大津波-原発危機に見舞われた後、幸福のための

デザインという考え方は、デザインに何ができるのか、デザイナー

として、日本人として人間としてどう生きるのかという問いかけに

変わり、向き合うことで、放心状態から抜け出せたのではないかと

思います。

日本へ共感を寄せている友人らは皆、チャリティーや募金、寄贈作

品の制作に協力してくれました。募金箱をデザインしてつくること

も、ひとつのかたちとして正しいと信じています。

The message from Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham below:

On the March 11, Japan suffered what has been described as a 1000 year event. The earthquake and tsunami destroyed 400km of coastline, killing over 10,000 people, leaving 400,000 people homeless, and has triggered a nuclear situation that is still unfolding.

Japan has inspired designers for many generations, it is the reason we travelled to this country 20 years ago, and have since made it our home. Japan is where the “PechaKucha 20 images x 20 seconds” show-and-tell event format was born, and it has gone on to inspire designers to get together in 400 cities around the world, to share their creativity at more than 1000 events each year.

Japan has inspired us all, now is it our turn to “Inspire Japan.”

Please join us on April 16 and be a part of Global PechaKucha Day – Inspire Japan. Let’s all come together and show Japan that the creative world is thinking of them, that all is not lost, and that it is possible to stand up and rebuild, even in villages and towns which have been completely destroyed. With creativity and passion, anything is possible.
