Irasshaimase, a Japan blog

    This is a blog I created when I arrived in Japan, to write about interesting and funny facts of the Japanese culture.

    This blog also gave me the opportunity to try out some new design ideas. I wanted the blog to convey the image of Japan obviously, but fun Japan, so I used their national bright red as the main colour and designed playful illustrations to go along with some of the stories.
