The Graphic Eye Of Tamotsu Yagi

Tamotsu Yagi moved from Japan to California in 1984 on a supposedly short-term assignment, where he was named art director of the San Francisco-based clothing company Esprit. Living daily by the principle that no detail is small, he has since built an internationally recognized reputation for quality design that is both studied and spontaneous. His unique blend of Japanese sensibilities and California vitality has had a profound influence on West Coast business leaders, including Steve Jobs of Apple. This crisp and vibrant monograph gives extensive insight into his work and design philosophy through texts, project details and abundant illustrations.
