About Jun Yamazaki and Takuya Osawa : Jun does not tie himself down to restrictions or stereotypes, think out of box. He brings a lot of ideas on the table widely, and shapes aesthetic designs combining lines and surfaces together freely. On the other hand, Takuya has a good sense of catch the critical point making the product attractive. And he is enthusiastic to polish the point thoroughly. Finding a hidden new value, giving various kinds of forms to it and sophisticating it without compromise, only the two different types of designers can have the great synergies in their design.
STATEMENT OF ART:
Jun Yamazaki : When I do my design work, I take good care of expressing and giving forms to my ideas attractively. The excited smiles of people who see my ideas motivates me a lot. Therefore, I always try to draw many design sketches which are filled with pleasure and warmth of humanity.
I believe the mission of designer should not be only visualizing their ideas, but also inspiring coworkers to challenge it and showing the future to users.
Takuya Osawa : My design policy is creating a new thing which have never been in this world. Whenever I see the people’s reaction to my work, or being impressed by it, I feel the pleasure of design. Because it means the design gave people a new view point which is totally different from the old view point. Therefore, I always try to design a new thing which is easy to understand and comfortable to welcome for the people.
