I believe that a “design perspective” will become extremely important for future generations, and indeed people of all generations, to interact with all areas of Japan. By “design perspective,” I mean an imagination, which discerns what has substance and will endure, and allows users to easily understand and enjoy innovations. I feel that now, more than ever, a new kind of guidebook with a “design perspective” is needed. Therefore, we will publish a guide to each of Japan’s 47 prefectures. The guidebooks will be composed, researched, and edited identically and be similar in volume. (from a travel guidebook “d design travel”)
