Architecture is challenging, but always fascinating.
Each project has its own story and landscape, and each one requires new solutions and perspectives.
I find joy in searching for paths and giving form in the process.
I believe that architecture is not something that stands out, but is completed through its dialogue with nature, the land and the passage of human time. I dream of architecture that becomes deeper and more beautiful with the passage of time.

"We shape buildings, and then buildings shape us."
As this saying suggests, architecture is not just a space, but a power that shapes people's lives.
When I imagine how people will spend their time in the spaces I have designed, I feel both joy and a strong sense of responsibility.
I understand that a small decision in my design can make a meaningful difference in someone’s daily life, and it is my hope to create a heart-warming memory through my designs which remain in people’s lives.

While exploring Kyoto’s traditions and reflecting on contemporary architecture at TPOD, I aspire to deepen my understanding of different cultures and perspectives together with colleagues of various nationalities.
I hope that the experiences I gain at TPOD will serve as a strong foundation for my future in architecture.
