Hi, my name is Kosuke Futsukaichi.
I'm a designer currently living and working in Tokyo as a member of Takram,
a global design innovation firm. 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,
approaching it not only as a service to businesses but also as a way to look at life.
Culturally, I'm a product of the
KantÅ region
of Japan, Toronto, Arizona, and Vancouver. Over time, these environments have produced a
hybrid of Japanese sensibility and Hip-Hop audacity.
I wish to spend my life doing things that utilize my creativity and hopefully inspire others along the way.
