d design travel GUNMA
Made in
Japan
d design travel is a series of guidebooks that introduces each of the 47 prefecture's "long-lasting individuality" or "uniqueness" from an artistic viewpoint. In each series, the editorial team spends 2 months traveling around each prefecture and features articles on experiences that impressed them.
Gunma Prefecture: A Vision of the Ideal Japanese Hometown.
Speaking with Gunma residents like Jun Kogure, who taught us the allure and cultural roots of the hot springs, gave us a real sense for the richness of living there, the lack of pretense in its core values, how easy it is to fall in love with all of it. The sheer bliss of thinking at your own pace, with no distractions and nothing to get in the way.
One Note on the Cover : "Shouting Out Love for One's Wife in the Middle of a Field of Cabbage" 2016 Poster
In Gunma, compared to other prefectures there are lots of places with words meaning "love" in their name. One example is Tsumagoi (literally, "wife love"), a famous cabbage producing area. I happened to find this unique event poster that combines these two things when walking down the street. Even though I noticed it from afar, I knew right away that we should use it for our Gunma issue's cover. The prefecture's vibrant agriculture, wives who "wear the pants," hard workers, design that doesn't chase that found in cities—It expressed all of these things with an excellent balance. Its slight countryside feel also charmingly and perfectly matches my impression of the prefecture. (By Editor-in-Chief of "d design travel")
*The books are written in Japanese and English.
"Traveling long life design"
D&DEPARTMENT PROJECT, which works on the theme of "Long-Life Design", has selected the long-lasting "individuality" and "character" of each of the 47 prefectures from a design perspective and compiled them into a tourist guide called "d design travel".
"d design travel" presents only those things that have truly impressed the reader from the perspective of "long-life design" after traveling to the area as if the editors lived there. The "long-lasting things" and "local characteristics" that have taken root in each prefecture are selected and published as "d-mark reviews" in six categories, such as sights, restaurants, cafes, shops, hotels, and people.
"d design travel" is not an ordinary guidebook full of information, but a design travel series that introduces places that have a vitality and a message from the local area that will last even 10 years, confirmed by the sense of D&DEPARTMENT.
