Masashi Kondo

Designer: 

My greatest design influence: nature in daily life.

My most important mentor: the beauty of nature.

The word that best describes my design philosophy: to be honest to oneself.

My first memory of Marimekko: impressive image of Unikko.

The Marimekko product I use all the time: Marimekko’s traditional purse.

When I travel I take: only a minimum things.

Suitable color to the receiver makes a gift great.

The scenery I’m most fascinated with right now: the flatness of the Finnish scenery.

The smell that reminds me of childhood: the smell of the changing seasons.

The best Sunday morning music: the sound of a small stream.

If I were not working as a designer, I would be: researcher for fish which are designated as a protected species or Nuuskamuikkunen.
