"The fusion of mathematics and design"
Official collaboration T-shirt with the Yokohama Museum of Art's reopening commemorative exhibition "Masahiko Sato Exhibition: New x (How to Make + How to Understand)."
The front design, created by creative director and filmmaker Masahiko Sato, is based on the mathematical concept of "complementary sets," and features 21 alphabet letters arranged in a layout reminiscent of inlettering (instant lettering) using the widely used Western font "Helvetica." This methodology was not introduced in the exhibition, and is the most mathematical and "Masahiko Sato-esque" graphic design of this collaboration.
