Polkadot Parashell Parasol in Montreal
It’s been several years since I started designing umbrellas and parasols in Japan. Sometimes I wonder how I ended up here, but one thing is certain: it’s truly enjoyable work.
This is a photo of a Parasol parasol taken in Montreal, in front of the very colorful Palais des congrès.
Parashell Parasol Gesture Drawings
These are some gesture drawings I made for the Parashell parasol. These don’t serve any technical purpose but help in fleshing out the shape of future prototype concepts.
DiCesare Designs at Matsuya Ginza
Once again DiCesare Designs items were on display at Matsuya Ginza Department Store the biggest umbrella show in Japan! This year we displayed our latest collection at our booth beneath a great display of several hundred hanging umbrellas in Matsuya’s main hall. I got a chance to meet a lot of interesting people and see their reaction to the designs. It was also interesting to see their reaction to my at times incomprehensible Japanese language skills. An annual event not to be missed by any umbrella connaisseur.
J-wave Interview with Designer John DiCesare
I went down to J-Wave for an interview with Andy Pompilio this week. It was the first time that I’ve been interviewed so I have to admit, I was a little nervous. Andy did his best to make me feel relaxed enough to get through the interview smoothly. He is so laid back and that rubbed off on me

彫刻への情熱
彫刻は私の情熱だ。子供の頃からそうでした。私にとって傘やパラソルのデザインは、彫刻と建築の中間に位置する。試作品のために木彫りをすることもある。還元的な彫刻は私の得意分野ではないかもしれませんが、多くの喜びをもたらしてくれます。

Rhythm Pumpkin Umbrella
The Parashell parasol was the item that led me into this area of design. That being umbrella & parasol design. From the Parashell, a lot of my other items were conceived. This new umbrella series featuring an undulating canopy is called the “Rhythm” Pumpkin Umbrella. The design is unique and stylish but takes nothing away from the functionality of keeping one dry on the rainiest of days.
