POST PARADISE PRODUCT
（Prototype_02）

The lesson from the catastrophe is that we must stop blind faith in technology and regain the freedom to think on a human scale.
As Martin Heidegger warned, man did not create technology, but a monster of technology that existed before civilization, is manipulating man to achieve its own ends.
I would like to propose the possibility of surviving major earthquakes and tsunamis that may come in the future, not with concrete levees or nuclear power plants but with modest and beautiful products.
