Search for a suitable shape for the material using a material that has not been used until now. I designed the chair, which is the furniture closest to the body, including how to make it. Thinking about what kind of material is inevitable in modern times. I was studying with ready-made products around me, but I couldn't find any inevitability. I proceeded with his research and decided to use unnecessary fibers generated in the process of manufacturing Japanese paper. I conducted various experiments on how to make furniture strong enough to withstand. How thick and how strong it is, and how much it dries. I verified whether it would shrink. So I found that a curved shape was more suitable than a straight shape as a whole. I eliminated the front-back and left-right directions that ordinary chairs have, and thought based on the hemisphere.
