Thailand
Takanao Todo is a distinguished designer acknowledged by the A' Design Award. Their work showcases mastery in aesthetic development.
Takanao Todo is an architectural designer, ceramicist, lecturer and educator for supporting dyslexia in Japanese. His major contribution in design is realization of "total work of art" via seamless integration from object, furniture, space and to the level of operation, while applying conceptual approach enabling to share the latent narrative to wider audiences. He is challenging how Japanese tea culture can evolve outside of Japan through design also. He integrates both local and digital craft in his design for more human centric design. As Takanao is the first official dyslexic Japanese, his success encourages many dyslexia in Japan, as dyslexic social awareness in Japan is not well acknowledged.
