京都 日本料理

依頼を受ける際、必ず依頼主の声を直接聞くことが、まず大切な段階である。
なぜなら、その想い、その気を受けて、一つ一つ私の書は変わると信じている。
この『おとなり』では、オーナーより
「京都の歴史あるお店のお隣で店を開く。お客様もお隣同士で和気あいあいと。」
私は少し仮名様でありながらも、新しい響きが聞こえるような書を書きたいと、
筆をもった。


Japanese Restaurant OTONARI

The process of writing to a client's request starts with listening to what the person has to say. It is the most important step as the client's thoughts and passion guide my creation every time.
OTONARI means "good neighbors." This is exactly what the restaurant owner wanted in her relationship with a well-known establishment very next door in Kyoto, as well as among the customers who share the time and space at her restaurant.
I wished my brush to paint out letters with the amicableness KANA offers yet let them echo something new.
