Fragile Shelter

Design: Hidemi Nishida

Location: Sapporo, Hokkaido, northern Japan

FRAGILE SHELTER

Hidemi Nishida is a Sapporo-based artist, designer. The “Fragile Shelter” is one of his works of the “Shelter series”. This winter temporary shelter leads people to gather, have a party, stay, feel something and so on in the white woods.

This fragile function as being to shelter in the wild nature makes you a bit restless to stay there alone, but when few number of people get to gather into there, it’s get be wonderfully cozy, empathetic space.

This is a reconfirmation of beginning of the “house”.
