In 2004, Hara planned and produced an exhibition "HAPTIC–Awakening the Senses", which focused on human sensory perception in design. For this exhibition, he invited various creators such as fashion designer Kosuke Tsumura, graphic designer Shin Sobue, product designers Jasper Morrison and Naoto Fukasawa, architects Kengo Kuma and Toyo Ito "to design an object not based on form or color, but motivated primarily by "haptic" considerations". The term "haptic" means “relating to or pleasant to the sense of touch."
