"Design is a game. When it becomes unfashionable or boring, it's over."

An oral biography of Nakajo Masayoshi, a maestro who has been a leader in Japanese graphic design for over half a century.
Masayoshi Nakajo has served as art director for Shiseido's PR magazine Hanatsubaki for over 40 years, and has continued to bring innovative and stylish designs to the world, including the logo and packaging design for the parlour, as well as the logos for Ginza Matsuya, the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo, Kagome, and many others. Looking back on his career, Nakajo will discuss what design is.

The beginning of the book features a portrait of the author photographed by Homma Takashi, as well as 32 pages of color illustrations of his major works, including "Hanatsubaki."

Also included is "Nakajo Masayoshi and Me," in which nine creators talk about their work with Nakajo!
