『夢みるデザイン プロダクト』掲載

DiCesare in Dreamy Design Products Book

This design book was just recently released here in Japan. The title in Japanese is 夢みるデザインプロダクト. Which is kind of difficult to express in English. I guess it means “dreamy” designs or perhaps “surreal” designs. The Kabocha parasols that we made in collaboration with Cocca are included in this wonderful little book. It’s on the bookshelves all across Japan now!
