Exhibition and Sale of Representative Works from Wine Carafes to Drawings



Claudio Colucci was born in Switzerland in 1965. After graduating from the Graphic Design department at the Geneva School of Decorative Arts, he studied industrial design in Paris and design in London, and has been based in Tokyo since 1996.

His work spans a wide range, including commercial spaces, displays, product design, installations, and art, and he is known for his humorous design style and creation of high-quality spaces. He is currently active globally not only in Japan but also in China, France, and Switzerland, and is supported by many fans.

This is his first art book, "Kaleidoscope," which means kaleidoscope. It captures Colucci's confrontation with design through a multifaceted perspective while engaging with various lands and cultures around the world, and unfolds a world woven from dynamic curves, unique color sense, and rich material usage over 20 years.







At the venue, in addition to "Kaleidoscope," original artworks such as postcards, popular items like mugs, and original drawings depicting his representative sofa "Joly Coeur" will be exhibited and sold. Furthermore, it can also be purchased simultaneously on the Daikanyama Tsutaya Books website.

This fair unfolds a pop and playful world of kaleidoscopes. We hope you will experience Colucci's aesthetic sense and the wide range of his creations with your own eyes.
