Tupera Tupera Postcards


Seigensha Art Publishing 2018 ISBN 9784861526763 Acqn 28854
Hb 15x15cm 58pp col ills £17.50

Japanese illustrator Toshiyuki Fukuda teamed up with art and design team Tupera Tupera to
produce this book of simple, Russian-themed postcards. Fukuda is a Tokyo-based illustrator who
specialises in quirky prints which often feature animal motifs. His illustrations have an inherently
childish quality, and his small realms, full of colour and detail, are in a way intrinsically nostalgic.
Tupera Tupera, also based in Tokyo, comprises the artists Tatsuya Kameyama and Atsuko
Nakagawa, who have been working together since 2002. The pair is known for its humorous,
colourful, and highly original picture books and illustrations, and also engages in a wide variety of
creative fields.

The Art Of Hanamasa- Purveyors Of Fine Flowers In Kyoto For 160 Years
Seigensha Art Publishing 2018 ISBN 9784861526756 Acqn 28852
Pb 16x23cm 166pp col ills £29.95

Hanamasa is one of the oldest florists in Japan, having been established in the Fushimi ward of
Kyoto around 160 years ago to deliver flowers to the city's famous shrines and temples. Since
then, it has grown into a modern practice that nevertheless carefully preserves the traditions of
ikebana, or Japanese flower arrangement. Fitting flowers to a particular room or space requires
untold consideration and patience. The end result is a seamless adornment, a unity of purpose
that blends the flower arrangement with the room and even extends to the entire house. This
book displays the results of Hanamasa's meticulous and beautiful work in all kinds of scales and
contexts.

Super Graphics: The Works Of Yuki Kikutake


Seigensha Art Publishing 2018 ISBN 9784861526770 Acqn 29130
Hb 15x22cm 192pp col ills £32.50

According to Yuki Kikutake, "supergraphics" are a recent trend of site-specific design that
connects people and places. They decorate everyday scenes, from construction sites and public
spaces, to in and around buildings. How can a place or space be changed through its re-
evaluation by graphic design? With an innovative but simultaneously subtle viewpoint fostered by
her global experiences, Kikutake focuses not only on attractive, comfortable spaces but also
places and objects that give a negative impression. This book features around 20 of her works
and cross-genre designs that can serve as a guideline for future projects, from landmarks and
trains, to product and book design.

book with falling (down or up) as its theme. In each of three drawn and animated narratives, a
different protagonist falls through the floor of a fantastical little shop inside a tree. As might be
expected, each ends up in a completely unexpected turn of events.

The Book Of Japanese Tea


Tankosha 2018 ISBN 9784473042613 Acqn 29175
Pb 19x26cm 96pp col ills £21.50

Japanese food culture and the Japanese concept of hospitality are embedded in the rituals
surrounding the preparation, presentation, and consumption of Japanese tea. Most tea produced
in Japan is green tea, and freshness and savouriness are sought after and praised as important
characteristics of the drink. From taste elements to fresh aromas, this enlightening book
examines Japanese tea in depth, celebrating its special character. Moreover, it delves into the
traditions, methods, and geographies of tea in Japan. The book's author, Per Oscar Brekell,
relocated from his native Sweden to Japan in order to follow his passion for tea and become a
certified Japanese tea instructor.

Toulouse Letters - Teaching Experiments In Letter Drawing


Editions B42 2018 ISBN 9782917855966 Acqn 29340
Pb 12x19cm 216pp col ills £21.95

Following a series of invitations made since 2005 in the field of type design at the Institut
Superieur des Arts de Toulouse, this book retraces the collective experiments undertaken in the
Graphic Design option through workshops, exhibitions, lectures, semester courses and projects in
partnership with the City of Toulouse. By way of interviews and essays proposed by the different
guest type designers (Alejandro Lo Celso, Frederik Berlaen, Thomas Huot-Marchand, Hans-Jurg
Hunziker) and the teacher coordinating this programme (Francois Chastanet), its subject is about
sharing different pedagogical approaches to drawing letterforms at the beginning of the 21st
century; it also questions the deeply paradoxical nature of this specific drawing practice,
somewhere between a quest for identity and invisibility, and between the visual tone of a text and
self-effacement towards usage.

Noemi Vola - A Book Of Horses


Corraini Editore 2018 ISBN 9788875706739 Acqn 28984
Pb 22x22cm 44pp 44col ills £14.50

Obedient horses can be found everywhere: on top of monuments, together with cowboys, on the
playground, in fairy tales. They are always there, where we imagine them to be. Noemi Vola'
story is actually a different one: here the protagonists are revolutionary horses. They abandon
monuments, run away from swings; they even leave the jacks of playing cards! But to go where?
What could ever be better than a merry-go-round ride? Why stop jumping obstacles? Noemi Vola
tells us with her unmistakable trait abot how the search for freedom is within everyone's reach,
even for those who just seem unable to move from where they were placed.
