• Hair!

  Here is my second attempt at an original paper toy, entitled “Hair!” I based this toy on my last one and made a few adjustments. I added a cap and lengthened the legs. I feel that the overall balance is a lot better with this one, and I also think that simple pop designs work [...]

• The Art of Skulls

  Last week I received a batch of the latest issue of “I Want Your Skull” magazine from my friend Ryan August. As I mentioned before, my illustration features in this issue so I was suitably excited to get my paws on the magazine. Though I do say so myself, I think this issue is one [...]

• Eco-kun

  Gravity展の第一弾では、僕のデザインを利用して、シンプルなプロダクトを作ることに挑戦した。その経験を通して色んな事を勉強出来た。 今回のプロダクトはエコ君のレターセット。 エコ君というキャラクターは熱心な『環境戦士』。だから、僕のプロダクトもこの気持ちを示さないとダメだと思って、再生紙を使用した。 ２色のエコ君は、少し味のある再生紙に良く合っていて、このシンプルなデザインに結構満足している。 At the first Gravity show earlier this year I made an attempt at creating some simple products featuring my designs, and learnt a lot from the experience. This time I settled on a single item – the Eco-kun writing set. As my Eco-kun character is supposed to be an ardent eco-warrior, [...]
