TAILOR
TAILOR
Branding / 2025
The brand name is derived fromtailor,meaning to craft and refine.More than simply adding fragrance, this fabric softener smooths fibers, reduces wrinkles and distortion, and refines garments and towels to a soft, comfortable finish.It transforms everyday clothing and essential household textiles into items that can be cherished and cared for over time.Supporting daily care through both functionality and comfort.The package is designed to blend naturally into living spaces while becoming something you want to display.Rather than being hidden away, it is conceived as an object that integrates into the interior.The logo conveys a casual, approachable feel, while the form and materiality of the container express a sense of thoughtful craftsmanship and quality.A product designed to subtly elevate everyday life.

N.E.W.S project

N.E.W.S project is a food project that transforms ingredientseach carrying the intentions of producers from across Japaninto processed products suited to each moment.Starting from the enjoyment and pleasure of food, the project explores whatfoodcan be in a contemporary context. By uncovering value in often overlooked ingredients and their backgrounds, it brings them into everyday life.Through food, it also aims to create a fair economic cycle and contribute to a diverse and inclusive society.
Forest BouillonDeveloped with inspiration from a traditional, land-rooted dashi culture.Extending beyond seafood, it reinterprets a quintessential Japanese food cultureone that draws broth from plants growing naturally in each regionin a contemporary way.Using plants native to the northern foothills of Mt. Fuji, the product offers flavors that shift with the seasons and from year to year.Rather than a simple seasoning, it is designed as an experience oftasting the terroir.From ingredient selection to package design, the entire process is carried out consistently within N.E.W.S project.
