I helped Lullatone with a bit of Wes Anderson-style title treatment for this new video they put together for their new album Elevator Music.

Identity for Fukuoka-based house music label.

I recently designed the logo and identity for Fukuoka house music label Vrillo.

Their first single after the redesign is “Starlight” by Aquamode, featuring the vocals of Lori Fine.

I recently designed the cover for the compiled anthology of Dreamwhip zine issues #1-10.

Spanning 1994 to 1999, this 352-page pocketsize anthology collects issues 1 through 10 of the long-running Dream Whip zine. Inside, Bill Brown hits the road and finds adventure far and wide. Each page is lovingly handwritten or typed and illustrations and photographs abound. It’s tornadoes and pet cemeteries, Alaskan highways and the lonely ruins of government missile sites. Bill Brown’s America is seen with the big, dreaming heart of a romantic, everything recorded in sweet, smart, funny, beautifully-simple prose.

I did a lecture in Osaka on December 11- a “talk show” with Akiyama Shin about our mutual practices.

A super-accomplished typographer, designer and art director, Shin has steered his office through the creation of innumerable projects for cultural clients in Japan and abroad, taking home the Leipzig book award no less than twice.

The interview and accompanying exhibition of a lifetime of graphic design work took place at Pantaloon in Osaka. Giant thanks to the Pantaloon team!
