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.

Traveling the roads of Kagawa design

Kagawa is sheltered from typhoons by mountain ranges. This is a blessing in that there are few natural disasters, but it also means residents have had to learn to be self-reliant to survive. Art and design, udon noodles and the Shikoku pilgrimage - these are the "roads" that connect the towns and islands together, and "traveling" along them connects the people. We think these qualities are what shaped Kagawa, so small in size and yet so grand, so beautiful.

One Note on the Cover : "Creation Plaza" by Genichiro Inokuma (1902-1993)

Traveling through Kagawa, I got the sense that someone was watching over me, even when I was alone. It wasn't the art or the udon noodles that gave me that feeling. Rather, it was the presence of Genichiro Inokuma. He's a familiar figure to everyone in Kagawa, young and old, thanks to the many masterpieces he left behind in cafés, department stores, and even the prefectural government office. Without Inokuma-san as my companion, I never would have realized just how beautiful Kagawa is today, and how fun it is to journey there.

*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.
