Horaikan Trail.
I was given a brief to create tsunami escape routes on the coast of Kamaishi, Japan, and to co-design with the local community. The intention was to remove the morbid associations and to create a nature trail with respect to the memory of those that lost their lives. This project spanned over a year and was developed between myself and three other designers as a concept for the community to produce. This project was supported by Chelsea College of Art and Future Lab Tohoku.
We worked on site and with the community to develop the designs and to respond to the location. The location was Kamaishi, Japan.
