If that sounds like your kind of reading, you're welcome to join the Arigato Newsletter.

From my studio in Kyoto, I send new journal articles, quiet news from the studio, and thoughts that simply feel worth sharing – on the websites I craft for makers and designers, my design and cultural encounters, and building a creative business with intention.

 Based in Kyoto, Japan. Serving clients worldwide.
