LUCKY LUCK SHOW

"Design a hot summer in Japan where adults and children laugh, like merrymaking with the energy of laughter racing through, and people wonder what is it?" I remember this conversation with Issey Miyake at the firstmeeting.
The summer program "LUCKY LUCK SHOW" of 21_21 DESIGN SIGHT based on the theme of laughter was held in the summer of 2007.
I was responsible for the art direction realized only with the cooperation and support of many wonderful people. Above all, I was able to achieve my mission thanks to the many people who visited and supported this event.
