Works
Website for Soap Subscription Service
I designed a website for a soap subscription service for a school project.
The assignment was to create a service for the COVID-19 pandemic and the post-pandemic period.
I combined the idea of solid soap, which saw increased demand during the pandemic, with real flowers, that had experienced decreased demand.
The purpose was to offer a subscription service that allows customers to purchase these products without leaving their homes.
The target audience for this project was working women. The design expresses the cleanliness and transparency of soap, along with the elegance of flowers, aiming to inspire customers with the idea of a colorful and vibrant life after making a purchase.
In addition to the web design, I created soaps and packaging, and photographed them.

Responsive Website for Restaurant
I designed a website for a fictional Mexican restaurant as a school project.
By working on this, I deepened my understanding of responsive design.
The purpose is to create an image where prospective customers can easily envision themselves entering the restaurant during their work breaks or on their way home, and enjoying exotic cuisine even if they are dining alone.
The design strikes a balance between minimalism and contemporary aesthetics, while infusing some essence of Mexico.
Web Design
Allyship Project
I designed a poster and website to raise awareness about the concept of being an Ally.
This is s a school project to propose specific improvement plans for Japan's challenges in the SDGs for 2021 through design. I chose Goal 5, Gender Equality, and created a poster and website to increase awareness of the term Ally, aiming to promote understanding and support for the LGBTQ+ community.
The purpose of this project is to enhance the knowledge and interest of individuals who may not be familiar with the concept of being an Ally.
The aim is to make the poster visible to the general public and encourage them to visit the website.
