What a beautiful layout...!
That collection still resonates...
I love his introspective, thoughtful nature -
mixed with a genuine understanding and awareness
of his undeniable talented and ability...
Qualities attributed to many Japanese designers...
Truly the factors that set them apart
and allow for constant growth in their work...

Thanks for scanning this and posting, Inaya!

is it missing any pages after ? there was an arrow at the very end..

like very much his approach
his mentioning of collaborations with specialists in other fields
blending with car design ..
a big mix
will be a new kind of -global- fashion

thanks for posting the article inaya

^ No, that was all there was. Every article in this mag ends with this half circle.

hmmm....
thanks for scanning and posting inaya...

so unfortunate...
here today and gone tomorrow...i'm glad he found another way to carry on though..

i did love reading about this

black = too elegant
blue = too casual
ai (indigo) = just right

gold = too rich
platinum = too shiny
copper/silver = just right

this is the design process...
try this... try that...come up with the best solution...
i like that..
it's fun to do and fun to hear about how other people do it as well imo..
