Foreign style nuance design like no other

My strength is to create designs that are not often seen by getting input from overseas designs. In class, you can learn how to create nuance designs using textures such as watercolors.

If you can make business cards using this texture, you can apply it to other media such as leaflets and cards!

How to design to change customer behavior

What is important in commercial design is to change the client's customer flow line and lead to results. First, read the client's targets and the trends and trends in each industry. By superimposing design theories such as psychological effects on them, and changing the way signboards are installed and pop designs, it is possible to lead to results from the client's point of view.

Freelancer designer/Mwa design representative

Hello! I'm Maiko, the representative who runs a design office called Mwa Design that has received consultations from over 100 companies nationwide!


When I was working as a salesperson, I became a designer because I became interested in how sales and customer conductors for the day changed with promotional materials and POP.

Soon after that, I entered a short-term school where I learned design software and expanded my knowledge. However, most of the design jobs were recruiting experienced people who would be ready to work, and it was difficult to find a job. I never had any experience, but my designs are absolutely cute! I suddenly decided to become independent out of my unfounded confidence.


It was 6 years ago that I started as an amateur who couldn't make a single invoice easily. Currently, we do business with more than 100 companies a year just by consulting from each SNS. I would like to be able to share the know-how and advice I have gained during these 6 years of twists and turns along with my design work.


It's a designer world where you can't eat without being able to design, but as long as you know how to do it, there's nothing difficult about it! It's easy to be shunned when it's an industry we don't usually interact with, but design is close to everything around us than anything else. Let's solve various problems by putting design on our side!

Creator Interviews

Q. What kind of experience do you want the students to have through this class?

A. I hope it will be an opportunity to learn about the way of thinking. Try simulating my work and arrange it more and more in a way that suits your strengths. I'll always follow you when I'm in trouble!


Q. Please give a message to the students!

A. Rather than looking at various information on the internet or books, what you have actually experienced and learned should become your property in the future and be a useful drawer when you are in trouble! I want to take control of my own life! I started working as a freelancer six years ago with that in mind. I hope it will be an opportunity for today's busy people to stop and rethink!
