Our lunch gathering is an event where students bring a homemade dish and enjoy lunch together. This time, we had a delicious spread including ginger pork, potato salad, and tomato soup. Everyone enjoyed the meal in a lively and friendly atmosphere!
At our monthly seminar, students share updates about their recent activities, and this time, we had many wonderful presentations, including travel experiences and recommended books!
Additionally, we shared insights into the renovation project of the former Kino Police Residence in Osakikamijima Town. We also exchanged feedback on the “Connected by the Sea Art Walk Event,” which took place on May 3rd and 4th, and discussed ideas to further enhance our future initiatives. It was a truly meaningful and engaging session!
After the seminar, we held a welcome party! We welcomed six fourth-year undergraduate students and one first-year master’s student, bringing together a diverse and lively group. We’re excited for all the activities and collaborations ahead this year!
We appreciate your support for the newly restructured Sumakura-Ishigaki Laboratory, and we look forward to a fantastic year ahead!
On March 2, the Chugoku Branch of the Architectural Institute of Japan held a research presentation meeting at the Higashi-Hiroshima Campus, Kinki University. Six undergraduate students from our laboratory took part in the meeting and gave presentations.
The graduation research presentations and master’s thesis presentations were recently held at Hiroshima University’s Architecture Program. From our laboratory, nine undergraduate students and seven master’s students participated in them and presented their research results.
The “Vacant House Renovation Circle DIYAH” was featured on RCC TV’s “Imanama!” in a special on the vacant house issue.
They introduced their past activities and what they plan to do in the future.
We would appreciate your support for the activities of our students.

On November 9-12, 2024, we had the Lab’s trip around Kyoto. We were able to observe a wide variety of architecture, regardless of genre, and deepen their understanding of architectural space and technology. In addition, there were many other activities, such as a get-together with OBOG and free time to explore. Everyone enjoyed the whole experience of actually seeing, touching, and feeling the architecture. I am looking forward to next year’s seminar trip!
