绪方慎一郎

年轻时，我对世界了解不多，对西方设计充满了向往，所以我走遍了许多国家，目睹过它们的真容。然而，不知从哪一刻起，我开始意识到，最令人惊叹的设计其实是我身边的设计，而不是在国外。日本文化一直影响着西方的文化与艺术。如果不了解这一重要事实，我又能说什么呢？无论我深处何方，我总是得出这样的结论：我就是一个日本人。这种确定性成为我作为设计师存在的核心。为了与世界站在同一起跑线上，我意识到需要学习自己的文化，并为自己的传统文化感到自豪。

When I was young and didnt know much about the world, I longed for Western design and travelled many countries to see them with my own eyes. However, from a certain point, I started to realize that the most amazing designs were actually those around me at home, not those overseas. Japanese culture has continually influenced Western culture and art. What could I possibly express without knowing this important fact? No matter where I went, I always came to the conclusion that I was nothing other than Japanese. This certainty became the core of my existence as a designer. To be on equal ground with the world, I realized that I needed to learn my own culture, as well as to feel compassion and be proud of my heritage.
