Yoshihiro MIKAMI

Founder of STUDIO YOSHIHIRO MIKAMI.
Creating starting points for new perceptions and narratives.

With product design at its core, the studio works across concept development, art direction, branding, and artwork, spanning the process from conception to implementation.
Its product development ranges from electronic devices and digital products to everyday objects, furniture, and research equipment, crossing disciplines and scales.
Through collaborations with creators from diverse fields, Mikami also develops works that explore the relationships between nature, people, and society.

He is also committed to “Industrial Craft,” an approach that bridges traditional craftsmanship and contemporary technology.
Drawing on the character and essence inherent in places and organizations, he gives form to new values and experiences while designing processes that generate positive cycles beyond the outcome itself.
Based in Kyoto, Japan.
