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. DiCesare Designs Pumpkin parasols featuredin this wonderful little book. On bookshelves all across Japan now!

The parashell first made it’s debut at Hanway in Roppongi Hills. This is the place to go if you are looking for a one of a kind umbrella or parasol in the Tokyo area. Great staff and a wide selection for all tastes. Umbrella fanatics shouldn’t miss it.

I’ve being working on this project for more than 12 years now. It all started with a sketch I made as a student in art school. I never let go of the idea, and continued sketching. I then started making maquettes. The 3 dimensional maquettes informed he next series of drawings which then led to the initial prototyping stage.
