Architect Day: Satoshi Kurosaki

March 15, 2011 from MarceloSeferin's blog

The Japanese architecture presents another great architect, Satoshi Kurosaki has an interesting portfolio, consistent architecture, seen in small details, both external and internal, combining other materials with the concrete and creating cozy, fluid and natural lighting spaces.

Satoshi Kurosaki was born in Kanazawa in Japan in 1970 and in 1994 graduated at the Department of Architecture at Meiji University. He worked as chief engineer at FORME @ Associates in 1998 and then in 2000 chaired the APOLLO Architects & Associates. Today, Satoshi is also a professor at Nihon University.

Kurosaki is another great Japanese architect, who tells us this fascinating oriental architecture, designed in detail and the purity of lines. The portfolio shows environments and building perfectly inserted and worked very well within the "tight" Japanese land. Besides the volumetric control and use of other materials besides concrete, the internal spaces are always well resolved and distributed, abusing the natural light and fine details.

Tips on Creating Fluffy Characters

One of the best things about clients is that they're always surprising us with some random and misterious pitch works. One of my last briefings was to create a fluffy character, but since I always made illustrations more realistic, this was quite a challenge for me. As some of you may have thought, I also tought that creating a fluffy character would be as easy as drawing an apple, but I was wrong and on this tutorial I will explain the reasons why.
