Kuwasawa Design School (KDS) was Japan’s first leading-edge design school providing education based on a mix of different approaches and perspectives. Yoko Kuwasawa, a designer and journalist, founded KDS in 1954 as an institution to teach the basics in a comprehensive fashion as well as specialized topics. Originally modeled after the German Bauhaus school, KDS curriculums have always reflected and explored the trends and changes of the contemporary era. In order to instill in each graduate the core, driving force that underlies design ̶ a force that fosters originality and the ability to find practical applications ̶ rather than merely teaching design tips and tricks, KDS has students first engage in general studies based on design fundamentals, after which they delve further into the subject by learning specialized techniques and putting their knowledge to practical use. KDS takes advantage of their Shibuya location in central Tokyo and utilizes their wide- reaching interpersonal networks to invite a diverse range of guest lecturers for public symposiums, put on exhibitions of graduates’works (which are often visited by industry professionals), and offer numerous other such presentation events and exchanges connecting KDS with the outside world. KDS has already produced more than 30,000 graduates who serve as leaders of the design world. These professionals are active in various areas of the industry and their efforts have garnered widespread praise.
