〈Design descriptions〉

Some things aren’t visible to the eye but still mean a lot to us. "Dandelion roots" and "stars in daylight" were the metaphors that Misuzu used to describe these things. The dandelion’s lovely yellow flowers crop up all over town during spring, creating a striking sight.
These plants are resilient and capable of surviving in the smallest corners of the landscape, from gaps in stone walls to the edges of the road. When the flowering season ends, their leaves wither but underground, their roots are the only part left, waiting for the next coming of spring. Dandelions are generous, ceding the ground during other seasons so that they may coexist with their fellow plants. We felt that this resilience and willingness to coexist would strike a chord during these modern times.
Resilient, strong, generous, and lovely in appearance.
We incorporated the dandelion’s star-shaped seadheads and dignified appearance into the design.
