I'm Not A Designer, I'm A Creator.

I Never Liked The Idea Of Bags. I Would Say, "why Do So Many Of My Friends Spend So Much Money On These Bloody Bags?" But Once I Started Designing Them, I Was Completely Hooked. There Are All Of These Blogs About Bags. It's A Whole Other Industry, And I'm Really Excited To Be A Part Of It.

Japan, For Me, Will Always Be My Inspiration Source.

I Was Born In Japan, So For Me, Uniqlo Is A Family Brand. My Granny Used To Wear Uniqlo. And My Italian Dad Wore Uniqlo. I Wore Uniqlo, Of Course.

I Think When You Start Talking About Money, It Stops The Whole Creative Process For Me.

Having Plants And Flowers In My Space Makes Me Feel Very Calm And Zen. For Me, Its Important To Meditate Every Morning To Be Very Clear In The Head, And Nature Really Helps Me Do The Same Thing.
