Self-taught in the draping of clothes, he joined the dcor department of a Ginza department store as a designer. Rather than become a creator in only one field, he wanted to be able to design in many, so after that he went to study architectural design and Japanese aesthetics in an office that designed traditional Japanese architecture. Upon accumulating 5 years of design experience there, he joined a leading advertising agency and was responsible for the marketing and branding of luxury brands. He then went abroad to study art in the USA, before retuning and mainly focussing on the PR design of luxury goods brands. He was also selected for an art exhibition held at a Tokyo art museum. As the producer of many paintings, he continues to produce work even as he signed a contract to be the creative director and designer for the most prestigious hotel in Japan, the Imperial Hotel, where he is entrusted with everything from architectural design to advertisement design. He was also in charge of negotiations with France and supervision of the photo exhibition of French photographer Robert Doisneau that was held at this hotel. In addition to this, he also manages a publishing company that publishes electronic picture books to help children grow with plenty of sensitivity. Without being particular about the field or medium, he holds an expansive outlook as he continues his pursuit of the arts.-This illustrated book also has the iPad version written in English.
