NEW NORMAL NEW STANDARDはこれまでに東京と大阪で3度開催されており、今回は2022年の展示を中心に再構成したものになります。2022年の展示のテーマは「心地よい備えのデザイン」です。戦争による価格高騰や自然災害が起こる不安定な状況の中で、しっかりと身の回りのリスクを意識して事前に備えておく、余計なストレスを感じず心地よく備える方法を提案します。
NEW NORMAL NEW STANDARD is a project that suggests the changing demands of our daily lives influenced by global affairs and ways to enrich them, however possible through design from Japan.
This project was started in 2020 when the world was severely impacted by COVID-19. At the time, we were so hurried to take countermeasures against infectious diseases that we took many unconventional measures that reduced the quality of the spatial atmosphere and compromised comfort. Under such circumstances, designers with the same awareness of the problem came together. As a result, NEW NORMAL NEW STANDARD exhibitions were held in Tokyo and Osaka from 2020 to 2022. We have tried to develop a way to improve the environment and induce communication among people while taking the proper countermeasures.
In Milan Design Week 2023, we re-create the exhibitions so far. So you will see and think of the new normal products amid uncertain times.

The Japanese paper hinged folding screen, which evolved in Japan, is impervious to wind and smoke.
Using the technology of Kataoka Byoubu, the only traditional craft studio in Tokyo specialising in folding screens, this simple and delicate structure has been turned into a product that can also be used as a lampshade.The presence of light and warmth is important in disaster situations. Even emergency candles made from empty cans and a single torch can bring people peace of mind.
