Shaping Forever Use: Exploring Circular Economy at Ryōsokuin, Kyoto—“→Use Forever Exhibition 2024 / MUGE” | Design | Company | Feature Story

The exhibition’s sub-theme, “MUGE,” is derived from the Zen term “Yūzū Muge,” which means “everything is interconnected and harmonized,” with “Muge” signifying “freedom from obstacles.” As environmental issues become more severe, there is a need for new mechanisms and approaches that go beyond traditional thinking. By taking a more flexible and open approach to rethinking the relationship between people and home appliances, Panasonic has proposed a new form known as “Use Forever.”
