Kondo博物馆，位于京都清水寺正门附近，在通往寺庙的茶园坂边上。人们认为，京都古城由四个不同的地区的四个神话生物守卫着。该博物馆初是为了纪念著名的清水陶瓷大师 Yuzo Kondo而建立的。Mamiya Shinichi的计划是整修这座纪念博物馆。

KONDO MUSEUM, situated near the main gate of Kyoto’s Kiyomizu-dera Temple, by the Chawan-zaka approach to the temple. It is believed that the ancient city of Kyoto is guarded by four mythological creatures in four separate quarters.This museum was originally established in commemoration of Yuzo Kondo, the renowned master of Kiyomizu ceramics.Mamiya Shinichi project was to refurbish this memorial museum.

博物馆的内部氛围是使用各种深灰色的色调和昏暗的灯光产生的。在墙壁、天花板和地板上，竹子、石头、传统日本纸和石膏等每种材料的感觉都得到了有效的强调。除了展示每件作品，Mamiya Shinichi的目标是创造一个空间，在当地的历史和文化背景下体验这些艺术作品。

The interior atmosphere of the museum is produced using various tints of dark gray and dim lighting. On the walls, ceiling, and floor, the feel of each material, such as bamboo, stone, traditional Japanese paper, and plaster is effectively accentuated. In addition to displaying each work, Mamiya Shinichi aimed to create a space to experience these art pieces in the context of local history and culture.

博物馆的主要特色是宽度超过7米的平面艺术品，由Takahiro Kondo用他的招牌技术，银雾覆釉创作。这件引人注目的艺术品在这个光线昏暗的地方脱颖而出，产生了水的感觉和微光，与清水有着强烈的文化联系。在这个陶瓷世界中表达水的特性的能力使这成为一个非凡的博物馆体验。Mamiya Shinichi希望这座博物馆将成为繁忙的Chawan-zaka路线中的一个新景点，以及陶瓷文化的一个里程碑。

The main feature of the museum is the flat artwork with a width of over seven meters, created by Takahiro Kondo using his signature technique, silver mist over-glaze. This striking art piece stands out in this dimly lit place, producing the feel and shimmer of water, with its strong cultural ties to Kiyomizu. The ability to express the characteristics of water in this world of ceramics makes this an extraordinary museum experience. Mamiya Shinichi hope that this museum will become a new attraction among the bustle of the Chawan-zaka approach as well as a landmark in the culture of ceramics.
