The Design

About Horyukaku Ang Paglalarawan

Ang inspirasyon para sa mga ilustrasyon ay nagmula sa klasikong panitikan ng Hapon na si Nanso Satomi Hakkenden. Ang Horyukaku ay isang sikat na eksena sa Kabuki. Ang tema ng mga disenyo ay pagkakatugma ng mga tradisyonal na disenyo ng Hapon at Europa. Ang mga tradisyonal na Japanese motif ay iginuhit sa pamamagitan ng pagsasama ng mga istilo ng Art Nouveau at Art Deco. Ang unang pagpipinta na iginuhit ng kamay ay ginawa at pagkatapos ay kinulayan sa Photoshop upang mas mapalapit sa kalidad ng isang tunay na vintage na disenyo. Kahit na ang mga taong nakakakita ng disenyo ay hindi nabuhay sa panahong iyon, maaari silang makaramdam ng pamilyar at nostalgia.
