In the realm of design, both formal knowledge, for example logical knowledge and methods, and informal knowledge, for example judgment and inspiration that are hard to communicate, must be leveraged in development and management. I am deepening understanding of this so-called “theory × sensibility” approach through my development research.

My career in design development began with the world's first Mini-Disc player and has included products used in daily life as well as medical equipment. It culminates in advanced design.
