[:en]Cocca is a really charming shop in Daikanyama that makes their own fabric for use in clothing, accessories, interior good and numerous other items. The uniqueness of the designs and the quality of the fabric makes for really great items. That’s what excited me about working with the poeple at Cocca on a series of Rhythm Pumpkin umbrellas. Here’s a shot of the items in the Cocca showroom.[:ja]Coccaは代官山にあるとても魅力的なショップで、洋服やアクセサリー、インテリアグッズなど、さまざまなアイテムに使われる生地を自分たちで作っている。デザインのユニークさと生地の質の高さが、本当に素晴らしいアイテムを生み出している。リズムパンプキン傘のシリーズをCoccaの人たちと一緒に作ることになったのも、そんな理由からだ。これがCoccaのショールームで撮影した写真だ。[:]

DiCesare Designs Men’s Pumpkin Umbrella in TEMPS Magazine

DiCesare in Temps Style Magazine

When I first started DiCesare Designs, we only had one parasol design (the Parashell). Then I made another (the Kabocha) Pumpkin Parasol and from that a Women’s umbrella was made (the Rhythm) Pumpkin Umbrella. Recently, we have come out with a Men’s umbrella called the GRANDE Pumpkin Umbrella. It is similar to the Rhythm in style but larger and stronger with a more robust handle. Recently TEMPS magazine did a story on it and interviewed me about the design.

J-wave Interview with Designer John DiCesare

DiCesare Pompilio Jwave umbrella parasol


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

DiCesare Sculpted Wood Hinge

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

black & white Pumpkinbrella shots

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.
