‘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. Infact the construction sits on some remaining foundation of homes that were swept away during the march 2011 tsunami. This simple cabin took 8 hours to assemble,so people are encouraged to do the same across the area with the goal to provide a space for victims to meet and exchange about their past, present and future.
