Showa Modern: 1920s–30s Japanese Signs & Store Design

A blossoming cosmopolitan culture pervaded Japan in the 1920s and 1930s, an exciting era celebrated today as the age of “Showa Modern.” Western-style cafés, bars, and boutiques lined the streets, which teemed with posters and other advertising media giving fresh and exuberant form to the concept of design as a vehicle connecting people and things. From posters and flyers to calendars and product packaging, this book invites readers to delight in a treasure trove of over 200 enchanting examples of design.
