    Dezain.net is a bilingual (Japanese/English) design blog. Amazingly enough, it seems that the author, Okada Eizo, does the whole thing in HTML, using no blog software. Link via Chad.

    I’ve just realized that I missed July’s exhibition at the Ginza Graphic Gallery, which pisses me off as it was something I really wanted to see (the annual ADC show). Well, nothing much I can do about it, except make sure to go early to the next one, which starts August 5. In August 2004…

    I am so in love with my new Captain Porno. Designed by Shu-Thang Grafix, it’s a product of Roughtoyz. A huge thanks goes out to Jun, who not only runs Roughtoyz and the Pause cafe, but also the Rough empire, which includes the Collector’s Showcase figure shops. One of them is just down the street…

    Some cool ads that Jesper created for Tokyo Style in Gothenburg. I love the use of Brockmann figures for models. Also, the TSiG blogs should be launching very, very soon, so stay tuned for more news on that. And be sure to check out the updated site for Jesper’s design company, Next Century Modern. They’re…

    Uniqlo have a new series of tees out based on various fonts. The Eurostile pictured above is actually part of an old collection, and I couldn’t find images of the news ones (which are much nicer) on their website (I read about them in this week’s TOKYO WALKER). At 1000 yen, I think I might…

    Waste away the hours by having a look at Japanese designer Yoshimaru Shin’s superbly titled YOSHIRUMACHINE site. Seems like he’s involved in the organization of quite a few events, like a recent one for the band Tennis Coats (and their label Majikick), and an upcoming one (July 18) at Uplink Gallery for 360records’ Miroque.

    A while back I moblogged and blogged about going to the Danish Posters exhibit at the Ginza Graphic Gallery. It was quite nice, as you can tell by some of the pics here. Shots taken with the A5403CA mobile phone.
