JAPANESE DESIGN - katakata

Today on P&P is a celebration of Japanese designers Takeshi Matsunaga and Chie Takai, better known as Kata Kata. We last looked at Kata Kata design way back in June 2013 so I thought it was high time we checked in to see how things are going now. The design duo the traditional Japanese technique called Katazome which uses glue paste to resist ink. One of their latest projects featuring swirling fish and climbing monkeys (above and below) was created for the UK retailer Lush.
