Along the sidewalk in Toride (an rural area in Ibraki), there are many white road sign with dark-blue numbers, sometimes with "from sea" in the up-left corner and "km" in the up-right corner. The road sign indicates the distance between the exact spot and a seaside close by; it is used as earthquake notification. Unlike other earthquake notification (for example, text-notifications of earthquake in Japan always come with special warming alarm, loud and scary ), this kind of road sign looks quite peaceful, more likely to find them at vacation villas. 

Artist imagined the whole Japan as a Vacation Villa, and the numbers to the popular-seasides serves as "earthquake notification", as well as a minimalism Travel Guide. 

We go to the seas, and the seas may come to us.
