坂牛研究室論文博士の金沢くんの３本目の黄表紙論文「平面構成と開口部を通した篠原一男の住宅作品の特徴の変遷（その３）」が採用となりました。公聴会を6月中にいたします。篠原一男が数学を学んだ理科大で大村くんに次ぐ２つ目の篠原論としての博士論文が生まれそうです。指導教員としてはほっとしてます。The third yellow-covered paper written by Mr. Kanazawa　in the Sakaushi Laboratory, titled “Changes in the Characteristics of Kazuo Shinohara’s Residential Works Through Planar Composition and Openings (Part 3)” was accepted. A public hearing will be held in June. It will likely be the second doctoral thesis based on Kazuo Shinohara after Omura’s at the Tokyo University of Science where Kazuo Shinohara studied mathematics. As a supervisor, I feel relieved.

Thirty coronations have been held in Aachen Cathedral for 600 years. I want to go.

新しい本に私をモデルにしたイラストを入れたのかと配偶者に聞かれた。もちろん違うが似てるかも。My spouse asked me if I included an illustration based on me in my new book. Of course it’s not that. But it might be similar.
