Hi, my name is Kosuke Futsukaichi.
I'm a designer currently living and working in Tokyo as a member of Takram, a design innovation studio.
I appreciate clean water, clever punch lines, and beautiful layup packages.
Growing up, I was fascinated by
new gadgets
and how they gave people superpowers. This curiosity led me to pursue a degree in
design at Simon Fraser University.
It was here that I not only learned about the design process, but also developed a point of
view on my design practice. I view design as a holistic concept and culture, and I have come
to approach it not only as a service to businesses, but also as a form of expression.
Culturally, I'm a product of the
Kantō region
of Japan, Toronto, Arizona, and Vancouver. Over time, these environments have produced a
hybrid of Japanese sensibility and Hip-Hop audacity.
I now design full-time and aspire to become a designer with a capital D. I'm grateful to
live my life doing things that utilize my creativity.
