Designer of the Day Interview
17 March 2018
I have been work as a graphic designer almost 12years now.And past 6years, I changed my place Japan to Taiwan.So my half of career is in Taiwan.
I start my career from flyer design for my friends' club event. Because I would like to support my friends I met in the club. And I like the design which possible to tell something without a word.
I quite care about following three things.1. The purpose of that design.2. How much I can visualize the concept of the client.3. How that design works in the social after.
I quite exciting the initial idea part and presentation to the client and discussion for that.Of course, final printing part also makes me exciting.
I love to think a lot of things, like why this is like this or who act like this, and if this part change like that how it will be. I love to think that kind of things. Actually, a lot of things in the world has a simple rule. I love to think and find those simple to at different part and express by design.
I want to have more categories and editing skill, and grow up my design skills.
If someone wants to be a designer, I might advise her or him, listen more what the client needs.
The focus on the essence of that project and drawing that originality.
Every weekday morning, I check some news on the internet with having breakfast, I go to the office, check the task of that day and start work. As much as possible, I set the meeting with a client in the morning or after the lunchtime. As much as possible don't work overtime and relax at home or chat with my friends.
I don't much follow the design trend, but I much care about the new application or have an ear to the ground.
Good design is that can fill the client needs.
Could take a consensus with the client.
For now, planning and shooting photo to SNS post to a newly established brand company was biggest design work for me. Because of that works, I could make a fun of that brand from zero bases.

Designer Interview
17 March 2018
Since when I was high school student, I know that each color has each meaning and can tell some message by colors and shapes, I would like to use those elements and communicate with a society.
Now I work myself and work for one dress shoe brand to built up their brand style.As much as possible, I trying to do co-creation with my client, not design 100% own style.I would like to enjoy the communicate with the client until the finish that works.
The design is the tool to communicate with someone.and I prefer to put some surprise or enjoyment in my design.
I use to work editorial design before and I like to make some story with editorial design.But I also like to design some sweets package and sweets itself contain some messages,then present to some of the friends.
I really like some design which could see some logic and have some wonderment.
Company brochure.
I like paper material. If it the platform, "Pinterest" are very good to find some new idea.
Come down to child's level and play in nature.
Each color or shapes element of meaning.
For the client work, fun and kind of tense feeling.
Happy. :)
Good communication with the clients.
I will see, how achievement of the design purpose.Because the design might have some purpose of communicating with someone to tell something.
As much as possible, design to make the better world.So we might shouldn't work with some company which you can't agree with their product or service.Because most of the designs are designed or spread to the world that existence.
Some said the design became an easy to make for everyone on the development of the new applications or technologies, however, I have no idea.
I haven't had any exhibition yet.My first exhibition will be the final project exhibition in my university.
I love to get some inspiration from the nature rulesor physics and science books. However, I'm not familiar with physics and science, I like to read those kinds of books.
My design style or stance is, To the one case, through the hearing with the client message,I built up one design by my knowledge of the colors and shapes, so on.Therefore, modify with the client that base design, one by one.
I born in Japan and since 29years old, I live in Taiwan which my grandfather's home countryto get the university degree for 5 years. Thought, wherever I live, my background is more influenced my design I think.
Now I work in one dress shoe company to build up their brand style.Yet sometimes I take cases from out of that company.
Most important thing to co-work designer and client is, The designer can agree that client vision or not at first meeting.If can get compathy each other, can make good design.And who can make good design, might be a good designer for that companies.
1. I ask the client what is the purpose of that case,and I hearing the client background too.2. Start to collect idea source along the hearing from the client.3. Start to design.4. Presentation several ideas.5. Modify it 2 or 3 times.6. Finish
1. Work table, which I bought in working house. This has several sizes of drawer case under the table board, very convenient to store something, and can look simple on the to of table.2. broom and dustpan Especially, broom has a nice angle to swipe floor. so I like cleaning with this.3. log I bought one log as my homework before, though this is very useful to be as the table or chair. Chamaecyparis obtusa brings me nice smells sometimes and makes me feel nature.4. binder it's good to stock unused paper as the memo pad.5. mt tape Good to decorate small things.

To think the meaning of each element and which elements are fit to express client purpose.
Depend on what kind of designer, this definition will be changed.so, I can't say anything for that.
While the design process is fun, it could be a good achievement.
Observance and to know the each meaning.
Pen and Paper.Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign.ruler, cutter, tape.
Keep input from every life and as much as possible,to short your output time.
it depends on cases.
Why I came to Taiwan.Everyone wondering why I came to Taiwan to study design at university.It's is just because I would like to have experience at my part of roots country.
To know how to co-work with different section co-workers,
Now is only one client, dress shoe brand.Sometimes from my friends.
