Story in 2065
Yukiko is 79 years old female. The big city is crowded and moving more faster and busier than now because of improved technologies. There are two ways of getting older (natural way and using medicine to look younger). She chooses natural way to getting old. But she cannot accept one thing like  she cannot move fast.
One day, her friend suggest to go to tea ceremony lesson. It is one of the Japanese traditional event. They go together and take the lesson about tea ceremony. And then she was surprised for one rule about tea ceremony. At the tea ceremony you must have an elegant behavior. That behavior is the slow motion movement and also taking care of the item. The word slow motion becomes positive on her mind.​​​​​​​ After taking the lesson Yukiko and her friend enjoy to have an elegant slow motion in their life.

Product
The Cup made of Eggshell

Concept
This cup is inspired from this story in 2065.
I would like to make a product people use both hand, taking care of the product and enjoy the slow elegant time. The material is chosen Eggshell because everyone knows it is fragile and people taking care of it naturally. Moreover, the natural eggshell will become a rare material in the future. Because a lot of things usually are made artificial and it is difficult to see the natural material.
It can use not only elderly people but also young people. It is for all generation who have busy life and they can share the moment of elegant slow time. The slow elegant time meaning is connected to our life and to know that we need to enjoy the time and embrace it while we are getting older and don't rush the things.
