As the bridge is a symbol of my passion, I'm going to use it for my company logo. I can't wait to show it to you...!! 突然ですが、私は橋が好きです。 川が多い町で育ったせいか、小さい頃から橋を渡るのが大好き。 橋を渡った先には違う景色が待っているので、 橋を渡るときはいつもワクワクしてしまいます。 橋は隔てられた二つの地を結ぶ役割があります。 私は人と人をつなぐのが大好き。 人との出逢いで何かが生まれるからです。 なぜかわからないのですが、私は小さい頃から いつか異文化の橋渡しをしたいと思っていました。 そして実際に、海外に長く生活する中で、 自然とその役目を果たしてきたと思います。 昨日から会社のロゴデザインをしているのですが、 私のパッションを表すのにぴったりな「橋」を シンボルマークとして使用する予定です。 ...
