Where should colors be placed? It is important to study
color arrangement theoretically, through systematization,
so the theory can be applied without relying solely on yoursenses. Aside from the choice of font and layout, color
arrangement heavily influences the overall appeal of yourwork. By making the most use of color, we can master
designs and layouts that will produce maximum effect.
This book, based on the author’s academic experiences,teaches you color fundamentals – which are essential for
design – layout fundamentals, and procedures/points forcolor arrangement while remaining cognizant of “color
physiology” and “visual psychology.”

Thatch roofs are made from materials such as pampas grass andstraw. Once quite common in Japanese homes, thatch roofs are
eco-friendly while also keeping homes cool in the summer andwarm in the winter. However, during the economic boom of the
1970s they rapidly disappeared. Today, areas where thatch roofs
are preserved – such as Shirakawa-go – have become popular
tourist destinations. They attract visitors from around the world.
This book is a photo collection – mainly from the 1970s – that
captures the mystique of thatched houses across various regionsof Japan, including the lives of the people living in them. It includes
two hundred sixty-one photos of original Japanese landscapes thatcan no longer be seen in modern-day Japan.

は、バスケットの円形を崩さないようにすること。苗はバスケットの内側と外側の縁からはみ出さないようにし、管理する場合も、はみ出した茎はカットし、リースの形をキープします。もうひとつのポイントは、草丈を抑えること。冬の間はどの苗もそれほど生長しませんが、もし生長し草丈にばらつきが出た
ら、切り戻しして草丈を揃えます。春になると、モクビャッコウやシロタエギクは生長して草丈が高くなりますので、その頃には寄せ植えを崩し、仕立て直しをしましょう。

Basic Lesson

Point 1│植えつけるときの根の崩し方をマスターしよう

寄せ植え上手になるための基礎レッスン
寄せ植えを作るには、鉢の形、花色、生長後の草姿などを意識して組み合わせることが大切です。
美しい寄せ植えのメソッドをマスターして作品制作にトライしましょう。

Lesson 1

丸くこんもりと植えつける丸型はすべての寄せ植えの基本形コンテナの形に合わせた植え方のポイントを知る

丸型は、もっともスタンダードなタイプの鉢。初心者にも作りやすい、中央が高く完成イメージにより、使う植物や配置を変える

全体に丸みをつける寄せ植えを作ります。

異なる鉢で ①て役は中央から外して、主役の左右に配置

主役の苗はいちばん目立つ中央に、引き立します。ポイントとなる植物は、鉢と植物

丸型の鉢に植えつけるをつなげたり、寄せ植えの形を整えたりす

肩の土を取り除く

下の根をほぐす

肩を軽く崩して、土を落とす。このとき、根を傷めないように注意する。

根の中に指を入れ、やさしく根をほぐす。根の側面ももむようにし、根をほぐす。

苗をポットから出したら、肩の土を取り除き、根鉢を崩します。根鉢とは、根とその周辺についた土のことをいいます。古い根を取り除き、根の中の土を落とすと、根は栄養や水を吸収しやすくなります。根の崩し方は、軽く、やさしく、が基本。特に、日差しが強く、植物の蒸散が盛んな初夏〜
夏は、崩しすぎるとぐったりして枯れてしまうことがあるため、控えめにします。底部分に根が回って固まっている場合は、根の生長を促すために切り詰める必要があります（p.123 参照）。

Point 2│鉢の縁に沿わせるようにして順番に植えつける

Point 3│最初に主役の植物を中心に配置を考える

植え込む前に、植物の位置を決めます。植えつけの際は、苗の土と表土は同じ高さにする必要があります。
位置決めをするときに、鉢底石と土を入れておき、苗の土の高さが鉢の縁の上から２〜３cm 下になるように、土の量を調節します。

脇役の苗を鉢の縁に沿わせ、鉢の外に傾けて植えます。次に、主役の苗を、鉢の中央に真っすぐに植え、残りの苗は中心の苗を取り囲むように、始めの苗と同じ角度に植えます。苗を植えたら、すぐに土をかけて苗の位置を固定します。

る役割があり、配置はその寄せ植えによってさまざまです。この寄せ植えでは、ミス

この寄せ植えの主役はペチュニア、引き立て役はバーベナ、ポイント役はミスキャンタス。主役の葉色や花色、葉の形の異なるものを植えて、見た目の変化をつけるようにする。

キャンタスがポイントとなる苗。鉢の手前に植え、ペチュニアの濃い紫色を引き立て、動きも演出します。

苗を配置したら根に土をかけて固定。それを繰り返していると、最後のひと鉢を植えるときに鉢の中の土が満杯になり他の苗と高さが合わないことがあります。

African Beads

Traore Issa

Glass bead roots can be traced back to ancient times. They
originated in Africa with gemstones, seashells, animal bones,
and teeth. Eventually, European powers sought trade with
Africa’s abundant resources and started producing the glass
beads favored by Africans. These trade beads then spreadthroughout the world.
This book is the first comprehensive publication to summarize
types of beads and their history spanning 100,000 years, theirrelationship with Europe, and also contemporary African beads.
This book can be enjoyed both as a reference for collectors andas a cultural anthropology. This book is the culmination of avaluable collection passed down through three generations,starting with the author’s grandfather. When you are finishedwith this book, you will surely understand the names, designs,
and history of trade beads.

• This collection, gathered in the 1970s as regulations on the outflow of cultural artifacts
began, showcases precious textiles from around the world.
• Detailed observations are possible through enlarged images.

Textiles of folk art, including Congolese fabrics that influenced
painter Paul Klee, are introduced here. These textiles, createdfrom 1000 years ago up until the 1980s, are categorized by region,
including Africa, Central America, South America, and Asia. This

techniques have been lost due to the proliferation of synthetic
fibers and conflicts between countries and ethnic groups.

Making Designs and Accessories
with Whitework Embroidery

Seasonal plants andembroidered accessories“drawn” with Rococo styleribbon embroideryて刺しましょう。

There are a variety of images that give rise to ten to sen
Moyo Seisakusho patterns. Those images, like nature andseasonal shifts in northern climes, or landscapes that float
in my mind when I close my eyes, become designs for ourembroidery. If you embroider an entire pattern onto a pieceof cloth it becomes a single, patterned, textile. If you pulla single small motif from any design and embroider it ontoa piece of cloth however, that motif should then be treatedas a pattern itself. For each idea there are twenty patterns
published here. All of the patterns can be embroidereddirectly onto cloth that is the same size as the paper in thisbook. Embroidery basics and a design appendix can befound at the end of the book.

Your perspective will dramatically improve just by harnessing
the “power of green”!
“Green (referring to foliage and trees)” is often depicted asmere background scenery and has not received as muchattention as it deserves, perhaps because it has always beenrelegated to a supporting role. However, green has the power
to enrich almost any artwork with color, textures, warmth, anda sense of atmosphere. Anyone who manages to harness the“power of green” will easily create sketches with a higher levelof perspective.

The author, who runs a shop called “Emi no Mise” in Ogimi
Village – known as the “Village of Longevity” in northern
Okinawa introduced by the bestseller “IKIGAI” – presents a
record of daily meals and lifestyles of the village’s grandmothers.
This book records and shares the wisdom of a rich food culturethat coexists with nature. It also includes discussions regarding
local ingredients and features twenty-four delicious recipes.
From the preface: “The reason I decided to open a shop was
because I was deeply moved by the ways of the grandmothers andgrandfathers in Ogimi Village. They greatly value the blessingsof the sea and land as they live and eat sustainably. I felt a strong
desire to pass on their resilient wisdom to the next generation.
(...) If records of the practical yet abundant meals created by theirhands can serve as a guide for each readers’ future lifestyle anddiet, there is nothing more joyful than that.”

The Corona virus pandemic caused us to re-evaluate our diet,searching out healthier alternatives. It’s a fact that people are
increasingly becoming interested in incorporating fish into theirdiet. While using simple fillets is fine, there is merit to being able
to “clean a fish” yourself. It is cheaper than purchasing fillets, andyou can make two or three dishes that incorporate the entire fish.
Above all, you will realize how fun it is to cook with a whole fish.
One of the appeals of cooking the whole fish is that you can enjoy
leftover bones by frying them and making bone broth!

86

This book is actually a guide to cooking fish by a highly
trusted culinary instructor, Fumiyo Kawakami. Kawakami
actually teaches a specialty fish cooking course! Rather thanjust purchasing fillets, it’s best to buy the whole fish from afishmonger, fillet it yourself into two or three cuts, and then use
those – and the rest of the fish – in a variety of dishes. The main
appeal of this book is that the repertoire of fish dishes – which was
actually slightly difficult to come up with – has been expanded toinclude Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine.

Nukazuke is a traditional Japanese food. It is a type ofpreserve that uses fermented rice bran to pickle vegetables.
Nukazuke is produced by burying vegetables in nukadoko,
which is just rice bran fermented with lactic acid bacteria.
Current nukazuke techniques were developed in 17th
century Edo Japan. Nukadoko absorbs Vitamin B1 during
fermentation and is considered healthy. Also, consuming
nukazuke vegetables that contains lactobacillus can bebeneficial for improving one’s gut biome and overall health.
This book is for beginners who wish to start making
nukazuke using basic vegetable, meat, and fish fermenting
methods. It also presents variations of unique nukazuke andrecipes that use nukazuke as one of their ingredients.

ぬか漬けの基本

The author, a popular culinary researcher, prepares fermented
vegetables at home everyday and always has them on hand. All
the author does is pack leftover vegetables in brine (salt water)in a glass jar and allow the lactic acid to ferment. Lactic acidfermented vegetables produce a mild taste – sweet and sour –while also giving off a pleasant aroma and a depth and richness
that cannot be achieved with additives. Also, when fermented
vegetables are cooked with meat, the meat becomes quite
tender because of the enzymes contained within the fermented
vegetables. Fermented vegetables compliment all flavors,
regardless of cooking style. When you have them on hand, you
can cook delicious dishes at your leisure.
