This is a Christmas compilation CD album sold at Starbucks coffee shops in Japan. The warm and friendly artwork, rendered by means of a grid of coffee beans inspired by a knitting pattern, expresses and mirrors the feelings and atmosphere of warmth and coziness normally associated with Christmas time. Thus I wanted to combine some of the Christmas motifs with coffee beans, in order to relate with the customer in a simple and straightforward way. Knitting patterns and coffee beans look and feel quite similar so I created a coffee beans knitting pattern to cover all the surface of this album.

My approach is based on finding simple but meaningful solutions for communication needs. I am also interested in pursuing self-initiated projects, collaborating with others, organizing exhibitions, and pursuing design solutions for regional development with local communities.
