<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To overcome the situation that the egg-plant is used only as food, scarcely known in general on the reason why it is an auspicious plant, and its artistic charm is not fully expressed in the field of art. <P>SOLUTION: A bathtub, bathroom and a hot spring house called as human's utmost "mentally and physically healing places" are designed in the shape of the egg-plant, expressing a symbol of auspiciousness. Literature, art, plastic arts and music can be appreciated while taking an egg-plant shaped bathtub. Serving egg-plant cooking in an egg-plant shaped vessel, inventing lighting fixtures basing on the egg-plant shape to create a peacefulness atmosphere, and marking souvenir sweets with a shrine name, a crest or a poem or the like, each may contribute to promotion in sales, with development in the region. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
