篠原一男の博士論文は日本建築の構成手法を「分割」と見定める。その最初の事例が法隆寺東院伝法堂の前身の住宅だ。今日初めて見た。柱割は均等。柱、頭貫、地長押で構成される矩形が正方形でレトリックのないデザインが篠原好みで美しい。今日は飛鳥文化を撮影。Shinohara Kazuo's doctoral thesis determines the compositional methods of Japanese architecture as "division." The first example is the home that predecessor to Horyuji Toin Denpodo. I saw it for the first time today. The pillar splits are even. The square rectangle made up of pillars, head piping, and jicho-suji are square and the rhetoricless design is beautiful, and Shinohara likes. Today I took a picture of Asuka Culture.

娘夫婦来宅。娘が私たちにセーターを編んでくれた。ありがとう!!! My daughter and her husband come to our house. My daughter knitted us a sweater. They gave a round glass door stopper.Thanks!

拙著『教養としての建築入門』の文章が今年も入試の国語の問題に使われた。大学入試と高校入試二つに使われ著作権の関係で問題が送られてきた。高校入試問題は答えが明らかである。他方大学入試問題は文章の意味を問う選択肢の差異がとても小さい。自分でもきちんと文章読み直さないと間違えそうである。The text of my book “Introduction to Architecture as a Liberal Arts” was used again this year for a Japanese language question in the entrance examinations. The questions were sent to me for copyright reasons. In the high school entrance exam, the answers are apparent. On the other hand, the university entrance exam questions ask about the meaning of the text, and the differences between the choices are minimal. If I do not reread the text properly, I am likely to make a mistake.

Dr. David B.Stewart逝去、卒論指導教官、仲人、いつまでも先生、私の支え、ありがとうございました、さようなら、Dr. David B. Stewart passed away. A thesis supervisor, matchmaker, and teacher forever. You were my support. Thanks a lot. Goodbye.

大学時代、平井聖研のゼミに出させていただたき、日本建築史の定本を数冊読みました。奈良行く前に再読中。During my university days, I attended Hirai Kiyoshi’s seminar and read several standard texts on Japanese architecture history. I'm rereading it before going to Nara.

机の片隅はすぐこうなる、誰かいい整理法教えてくださいThis is always what happens in one corner of the desk. Can someone please tell me how to organize it?

篠原研花見に大先輩たちが集まった。知らない人がたくさん。ニュヨークから、中国からも。Seniors gathered to see the Shinohara Laboratory's cherry blossom viewing. There are a lot of people I don't know. From New York and China.

退任記念に学生から商品券のような体験券をいただいた200くらいあるコースから体験を選ぶ。奈良のThe Share Hotelに配偶者と一泊することにした。地域に根差した宿の設計をする予定なので最新の事例を感じるために。見るものは三つ。法隆寺、唐招提寺、薬師寺、書いてる本でとりあげているので再度自分の目で確かめたくて。To commemorate my retirement, I chose my experience from around 200 courses which I received experience vouchers like gift certificates. I decided to stay overnight with my spouse at The Share Hotel in Nara. I plan to design a locally rooted accommodation, so I want to feel the latest examples. There are three things to see. I've covered it in books I am writing. Horyuji Temple, Toshodaiji Temple, and Yakushiji Temple, so I want to see for myself again whether it's true.
