How's your weekend?
I am so excited because a challenging new
project for me will start soon. It is “decorating a hair salon with Bonsai”, which
will hold first Saturday and Sunday in September.
The salon "Asagaya3394", is located near the JR Asagaya
station in Suginami, Tokyo. The red wall and black pillars with many posters of
movie stars are very impressive. It used to be an old wooden apartment. One
young male hairdresser who has a noble spirit, got the whole apartment building
and reformed the inside to a modern and interesting space where young people
want to come. As the interior shows, he, the owner of the salon is quite unique
and enjoys doing something new.
I get my hair cut at the salon once in
every two months. As I have talked to the owner for 4 years, he knows how I
have a passion for bonsai (& bonsai pots) and he is interested in bonsai
too. The last time I chatted with him, he asked me if I wanted to display
bonsai, and I replied I will do that. And so I got this opportunity.
What most motivated me to do it is that the
space to display bonsai is quite different from the Japanese-style space I am more
familiar with. Matching bonsai beautifully in the salon with the red wall, many
ornaments and star posters will be a challenging and precious opportunity for
me. How should I put bonsai in such a place?
What bonsai or pots should I choose for the modern salon? I can’t stop thinking
of it.

Besides that, his true intention of this
project really motivates me. His words, “I hope the visitors of our salon enjoy
the space with bonsai, become interested in bonsai and begin doing bonsai” greatly
impressed me.
