| Architect Day: Satoshi Kurosaki Posted: 15 Mar 2011 06:12 AM PDT
The Japanese architecture presents another great architect, Satoshi Kurosaki has an interesting portfolio, consistent architecture, seen in small details, both external and internal, combining other materials with the concrete and creating cozy, fluid and natural lighting spaces.<!--break--> Satoshi Kurosaki was born in Kanazawa in Japan in 1970 and in 1994 graduated at the Department of Architecture at Meiji University. He worked as chief engineer at FORME @ Associates in 1998 and then in 2000 chaired the APOLLO Architects & Associates. Today, Satoshi is also a professor at Nihon University.
Kurosaki is another great Japanese architect, who tells us this fascinating oriental architecture, designed in detail and the purity of lines. The portfolio shows environments and building perfectly inserted and worked very well within the "tight" Japanese land. Besides the volumetric control and use of other materials besides concrete, the internal spaces are always well resolved and distributed, abusing the natural light and fine details.

| Interview with Comic Artist and Illustrator Edu Medeiros Posted: 14 Mar 2011 08:21 PM PDT
Being a Comic artist is a really tough job, there are many talented artists and it's a really competitive business. Today we're going to interview and show the artworks of one of the most successful brazilian Comic artist nowadays, Eduardo Medeiros.<!--break--> If you want to know more about Eduardo, please access his Blog or his Flickr. Also follow him on Twitter, he's a really funny guy. 1) Before we start, I'd like to thank you for the opportunity to interview you. First I'd like to ask you when did you become interested in Comics and illustration?Thanks a lot for the opportunity. Certainly I'm the one who should thank you guys.
2) What are your influences? What illustrator and comic artists inspire you?I really like Guy Delisle, Christophe Blane, Ciryl Pedrosa, Jeff Smith, Bill Waterson, Crumb, Allan Sieber, Enrico Casarosa, Andi Watson, Lucy Knisley, Moa...
3) You got a quite unique illustration style, your characters have some pretty recognizable characteristics that are like your style signature. When and how did you develop this style? How would you describe it?I believe I develop my style when my references changed. Guy Delisle and Andi Watson were guys that got my attention by using the simplicity of the lines, they showed me I didn't need to be a Jim Lee to draw cartoons. I never had the worry of developing my own style, so I relaxed and let things happen naturally. I don't know how I would describe, but sometimes I try to use some of my references, sometimes I try to change them, but I always try to keep my work simple.
4)Nowadays you work at your own studio, working with many clients like the newspaper Folha de São Paulo. Also you got personal projects like the comics series Sopa de Salsicha and Mondo Urbano. How would you describe your daily workflow?I work everyday from 7:30am to 8:30pm and I try to save the weekends, but when I have stuff to do I'm always working. The flow varies as per the work demand, sometimes I need to stay a month without producing a cartoon because I'm taking care of illustrating a book, for example. Of course there are works like Folha, which is a weekly thing, so I just choose a day to take care of that.
5) Sopa de Salsicha have become a great comic that shows you and your wife as main characters, showing many stories of your personal life and the illustrator lifestyle.Before meeting Aline I had Sopa de Salsicha as an illustrated diary. After we started dating the baixinha character started showing up on the diaries and Sopa gained other formats and became a cartoon. So I believe that baixinha was responsible for that.
6) What are our projects for 2011?I'm working on "Edu em apuros", the second book from MondoUrbano to be published this year. With my budies from Friquinique I will launch two super stylish books. In March the Sopa de Salsicha will be on the cartoon project from IG, organized by Rafael Grampá and Rafael Coutinho, two famous brazilian artists. I also illustrate a book from Ana Terra and has been a while since I started some cartoons for a projects from writer Paulo Scott.
7) Tell a big characteristic necessary for every comic artist / illustrator and why?I believe that we don't always do it right and please people. So I believe a comic artist/illustrator must be persistent and always draw.
8) Which 5 websites you would recommend us?
9) Thanks again for the opportunity to interview you Edu, please leave a last advice for the students and everyone who is beggining at this kind of business.Eat vegetables and remember: champs don't use drugs.

As the world looks towards Japan, we get to remember how beautiful this country is, with great culture, nature and landcapes. We just know that no Earthquake will be enough to fade Japan's warrior spirit.<!--break--> And through photography, we celebrate its beauty. These were taken by some amazing photographers, and I really recommend you to visit their portfolios at flickr, for more great pictures from Japan. I really hope you enjoy these, and please, if you can help Japan in any way, do it.
