This magazine had a specific feature and theme that contributed to one graphic designer, Yukimasa Matsuda.
His field can be evaporated from simpliness and powerful design to typology and characters, and symbols as well.
The magazine issue focused on his works, which were created not only as art but also for educational purposes.
He says, “when structuring books and diagrams, one must go beyond data, logic, and aesthetics, considering texture, symbols, colors, and historical context to shape the whole” (the website of idea: https://www.idea-mag.com/idea_magazine/349/)
In terms of the Diagram, which is one of his main styles, it is one tool that composites information that flows around in several places into one that lives in only two-dimensional aspects. For example, the information that only exists with bulletpoint and barely explains, rather the same information that is expressed in diagram that people are able to trace line and direction with eyes.
