The different elements appear distinct but are interconnected, forming a cohesive whole.

His mission was to produce refined work, regardless of the era, using a design language called Miyabi, which means refinement in English.

Five keywords supporting this design language are dignity, gravity, solemnity, urbanity, and intrepidity. These five keywords form the basis of his production.
