I got a mail from one of my friend in Tokyo like 3 years ago, saying "Yoske san, there will be an interesting Japanese carpenter traveling through Europe. Please take care of him if he comes to Berlin. I already told him your address and telephone number". one month later this Masaki was standing in front of my apartment. He stayed at my apartment for sometime until he settles down in Berlin and finds his own apartment. He is a very talented guy who actually acted as a main designer and carpenter to make famous bar/event space called TRUMP room in Shibuya Tokyo. And he is a very good cook too. He will help us building up our Family and Freinds space.

ある日東京の知り合いから「洋介さん面白い大工さんがヨーロッパを旅してるんですけどもし彼がベルリンへ行ったらよろしくしてあげてください」ってメールが来たその１ヶ月後くらいにこのまさきがうちの玄関にたってた。それ以来彼がベルリンに腰を落ち着けるまでの間うちのアパートメントに滞在してた。彼が渋谷のTRUMPルームをデザインして内装を作り上げた中心メンバーだ。そして彼はひじょーにおいしい料理を作る。まさきはFamily and Friendsの内装を作るのを手伝ってくれる。

This is how Masaki and Yuki buit our Kiosk installation last summer. It was made out of various drawers we found in Berlin.　The guy you can count on.
これが去年の夏に行ったキオスクのインスタレーションをまさきとゆうき君（どうしてるかなー？）が作ってくれた模様。頼りになる男まさき。
