I think image is most important thing for design.
So I cherish to spend time to imagine before design rather than design technique.
I draw designs by handwriting, I also use the latest digital tools, and I make mock-ups and physical models too.
I try everything I think is necessary for the design project.

Designer Interview

I've been an expressive person since I was young.I feel incredibly fortunate. I studied literature in university, completely unrelated to design, but somehow found myself drawn into the creative world. Before I knew it, I was immersed in design. The first product I designed ended up winning a Red Dot Award.
Our company's slogan is 'Captivating the world with Japanese aesthetic sensibility.
I think "design" has power to change everything, and to create some thing new, to know the meaning of my existence.
I like mixed design of multiple styles, for example, something fresh, something new, and something traditional.
I think it's always.
Imagine to be successful, always cleaning my eyes and my brain.
The answer depends on the times and places.
However, I think a designer is a wizard who makes the world evolve beautifully.

I am based in Japan and live in Osaka. I think I am influenced by Japanese traditional architecture and culture, such as shrines and temples, and Japanese culture like Kabuki. It's lucky for me. This year I am staying in Honolulu this spring to summer. The culture of Hawaii also have a big influence on me.
I work as the branding partner / artistic director / project creative leader of our client companies.
