Description

[Machine Translation] This is a travel guide that introduces local "constants" from the perspective of "long-life design," and only those things that really impressed us during our two months of living and traveling in the area. The guide introduces "long-lasting things" and "local individuality" that have taken root in each prefecture and is divided into six categories (sightseeing, restaurants, shopping, cafes, lodging, and people) and published as "d-mark reviews". Nothing" of Saitama was full of humility and aesthetics. There is nothing in Saitama. I was told that before I started the interview, especially by people who live in Saitama. However, as I started to live in Saitama, I started to feel people's will in many "untouched nature". I felt the order of human hands in the nature that seemed to be neglected, such as many riverbanks that have not been protected, and wooded areas that appear at intervals along the roads, and I was convinced when I learned about the existence of many bonsai artists and landscapers who moved from Tokyo.

d design travel: SAITAMA 埼玉 [日・英併記] / D&DEPARTMENT PROJECT

「ロングライフデザイン」の視点で、その土地らしい「定番」を紹介していくトラベルガイド。2ヶ月間暮らすように現地を旅して、本当に感動したものだけを本音で紹介しています。各都道府県に根付いた「長く続くもの」・「その土地の個性=らしさ」を選定し、 [観光・飲食・買物・喫茶・宿泊・人物]の6つのカテゴリーにわけて「dマークレビュー」として掲載しています。埼玉の「何もない」は、謙虚さと美意識に溢れていました。埼玉には何もない。取材を始める前から、特に埼玉に住む人々からそう言われました。ですが、埼玉に住むように通い、多くの「手付かずの自然」に人の意思を感じるようになりました。護岸工事されていない多くの川岸や、道沿いに間隔を置くように現れる雑木林など、放置されたような自然に人の手による秩序を感じ、東京から移住した多くの盆栽家、造園業者の存在を知り納得するのでした。埼玉の人々が言う「何もない」の何と粋な事か……。
