The Design

About Horyukaku Myndskreyting

Innblástur fyrir myndirnar kemur frá japönskum klassískum bókmenntum Nanso Satomi Hakkenden. Horyukaku er vinsæl vettvangur í Kabuki. Þema hönnunar er samræmi við hefðbundna japanska og evrópska hönnun. Hefðbundin japönsk myndefni voru teiknuð með því að fella inn stíl Art Nouveau og Art Deco. Fyrst var handteiknað málverk og síðan litað í Photoshop til að komast nær gæðum alvöru vintage hönnunar. Jafnvel þó að fólk sem sér hönnunina hafi ekki lifað á þeim tíma, getur það fundið fyrir kunnugleika og nostalgíu.
