A Study on the Meaning of Trace in Sugimoto Takashi’s Design

Interior designer Sugimoto Takashi uses salvaged material and natural thing for aes-thetical purpose. These material performs not just as fun stuff but as design tool in order to set up cultural meaning which modern society always lacks for. The method of communicating the meaning is the multi-layered trace on them. There are three types of trace. They are harsh tex-ture of surface, untrimmed outline, and gathering & arrangement. Through these formation methods of trace, Sugimoto can suggest various curtural meanings such as vanishing value of old-fashioned lifestyle, primitive energy of nature, and sincere touch of somebody. As a result, the trace in Sugimoto’s design is an endeavor to exist tradition(the long ago) and nature(the far away) in here-and-now interior space.
