TOKYO INVITATIONでの賛同コメント
In 2004, I traveled to Tokyo for an exhibition of my work.
Within the first day, I fell in love with the city; the ritual
of daily life, the attention to form,
the celebration of detail and the fascination with technology
and progress all resonate with my thoughts about design and culture.
A city that is both ultra modern and ancient at the same time Tokyo is different from the west, yet somehow very welcoming.
Tokyo will be a wonderful host to the world during the Olympic Games and I look forward to attending.
Cory Grosser designs from the unique vantage point of an American designer with a global perspective; subsequently he’s become one of the most exciting designers of his generation. In 2001, he founded his studio in Los Angeles and began serving international clients across several disciplines including furniture and product design, textile design, brand strategy and architecture. As a multi-disciplinary designer, brand strategist, and educator, his client list includes major multi-national corporations, and leading European design houses. As one of only a few American designers collaborating with top European design companies and implementing design strategies for large corporations, he's quickly elevated to international acclaim. His work has been featured in design publications worldwide, including the covers of several magazines. Surface Magazine named him one of the Top Avante Garde Designers in America and The Wall Street Journal proclaimed him one of the designers "most likely to become a household name.” Grosser is active in design education. He currently teaches advanced design studios at the prestigious Art Center College of Design, in Pasadena CA. He has served as a judge in several design competitions including the 2007 Bombay Sapphire Designer Glass competition, and his lecture "Positive Design: The Emotional Power of Beauty" has been delivered internationally. Born in Rochester, NY in 1975, Grosser earned an Architecture degree from the University at Buffalo and a Design degree from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.
