Features: Thought is the soul of design, and culture is the highest expression of design. Mr. Kiyonori Kawauchi's design philosophy is "Wind · Land · Light · Shadow." I interpret its meaning from a new perspective: Wind, his design art works come like the wind; Land, his revered design philosophy will be carried on the land of China; Light, exemplary design is the light of hope we see; Shadow, his influence will undoubtedly leave a meaningful mark. This book aims to introduce the works and thoughts of an extraordinary contemporary Japanese designer, hoping to inspire ambitious Chinese designers striving for greater development, as well as aspiring students who wish to become outstanding designers. It also hopes to help more readers concerned with the development of China's design industry understand the value of original contemporary design and the significance of culture.
