About Horyukaku Иллюстрация

Иллюстрацияләр өчен илһам Япон классик әдәбияты Нансо Сатоми Хаккенденнан килә. Хорюкаку - Кабукида популяр күренеш. Дизайннарның темасы - традицион Япон һәм Европа дизайннары гармониясе. Традицион япон мотивлары Art Nouveau һәм Art Deco стильләрен кертеп ясалган. Башта кулдан ясалган буяу ясалды, аннары фотошопта төсле ясалды, чын винтаж дизайнының сыйфаты белән якынаю. Дизайнны күргән кешеләр ул чорда яшәмәсәләр дә, алар танышлыкны һәм ностальгияне сизә алалар.
