MUJI brand

23

Ikko Tanaka is a famous graphic designer who later became an art director for the MUJI brand. His design introduced a new aesthetic combining simplicity with a sense of luxury of Zen or wabi-sabi. He presents products through simple design while incorporating Japanese aesthetics and deeper meaning that align with the brand’s purpose. He included the word 'Shoshitsu,' which means constitution or quality. Although there is only one type of ingredient, it reflects MUJI brand.
