On the 1st book floor of the 2nd building of the Daikanyama Tsutaya Store, there is a BOOK BOX, a box shaped bookshelf that introduces readers to current prominent creators.

It is currently exhibiting the exhibit “Book jackets you can feel” in collaboration with the magazine Brain, published by Senden Kaigi.
The title is “Dot Trip Exhibition”.
Through the designer Atsushi Ishiguro’s “book jackets that can be felt”, the feelings of going on a journey of thought with the expressions of a book are linked with the actual journey of experiencing a new sensation.
These book jackets invite readers into the world of books.

Mr. Ishiguro has designed and will be exhibiting and selling numerous kinds of book jackets that emphasize both design and content,
so that readers may go on many different kinds of trips.

Exhibition Opening September 1, 2019 at the Daikanyama Tsutaya Bookstore, Building 2, Floor 1

Some of OUWN’s designs were covered in “LOGO DESIGN WITH EXAMPLES” a book edited by PIE International.
I would like to thank everyone for all their great efforts.

At Graphis Design Annual 2019, Roppongi Hills’s advertisement “I’M DRESSED” and
LUMINE’s advertisement “LIFE IS JOURNEY” were selected as the “Silver Winners”.
LUMINE’s advertisment “LIFE IS JOURNEY” was also selected as the “Silver Winner” in the poster category.
Graphis was launched in Switzerland in 1944 and moved to America in 1952.
It is a historic design annual that continues to be published in New York.
It would be great if you get the opportunity the learn about activities of those involved.

This year we are coming up on the 7th “SAKE COMPETITION”,
where the most delicious sake in Japan is selected.
The limited edition “Miyoshi’s Winter”, of which only 344 bottles are produced,
won second prize in the label design category.
The “label design category” that was newly established last year was originally Mr. Hidetoshi Nakata’s idea
and Miyoshi has won prizes two years consecutively.

The New York ADC annual award was established in 1920
by the Art Directors Club (ADC: New York, America ) and
acknowledges business advertisements and designs as having the same value as fine art,
and is the world’s most historic advertisement award.
At the 2018 New York ADC Annual Awards, the poster for Japanese Miyoshi Sake won a Merit award.
Thank you to everyone who was involved.

Ishiguro’s interview is published in the June 2018 issue of Discover Japan, issued by Publisher A, sold on May 7th.
His interview about Japan’s regional creation from a creative perspective, how ideas are made, and more, has been published in a multi-page spread.

We would be delighted if you gave it a readthrough.
