Must watch. Must listen.
Since the year 812 people in Japan have recorded the first day in the year the Cherry Blossom was in full bloom in Kyoto. Based on this record you can see some of the local climate effects.
Rainbow Chaser will make you smile, shed a tear, and maybe crave a steamed pork bun.
Featuring character concepts by manga artist Karuho Shiina, of Kimi ni Todoke fame, and visual production collaboration from anime studios CoMix Wave Films (Your Name, Weathering with You) and Orange (Land of the Lustrous, Beastars), Rainbow Finder focuses on four teenage friends: track star Hitomi (voiced by Maaya Uchida), her sister Nanami (Haruka Fukuhara), good-natured goofball Akira (Takuya Eguchi), and cool and collected Toru (Natsuki Hanae).
So far, these are the only three episodes of Rainbow Chaser, released at a pace of one a month, that have been produced, but considering how beautiful and emotionally compelling they are, hopefully there’ll be more to come.
Over 250 pictograms to support tourism in Japan from a visual design perspective are free to download to learn more about Japanese culture.Nippon Design Center, in collaboration with Daikoku Design Institute, has released an ever-growing series of pictograms centered on diverse Japanese sightseeing, travel, and cultural experiences. These symbols were designed to provide visual support for tourists in Japan and to allow them to dig a little deeper into the stories behind common cultural artifacts. Even better, they’re perfectly free for anyone to download and use in personal projects.Check out this small sampling of the currently available 250+ pictograms (which also include a few animated icons as well) that were crafted under the concepts of “universality” and “aesthetics.”
This book is about print, but printed without a trace of ink.
It is a personal project that I have been slowly working on past 6 years. This massive project brings together my love for book design and my experimental approach to craft.The book is made of:
4 colours
16 elements
400 colour combinations
219.647 stitchesIn the four colour printing process, the patterns of small overlapping dots create full range of colour. Here the process is tactile and three-dimensional. My inks are threads in CMYK colours: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. All elements in the book are hand-embroidered: the swatches, the title pages, the grid papers, and binding.
