To design is to give shape to your feelings.
SwimmyDesignLab produces designs with love and care for the subject, no matter how small that subject is.
Even if only a small number of people understand at first, our strong feelings can give birth to a new culture.
And even if the impact begins small, ripples of culture will multiply on each other and eventually cascade into a large wave of new culture.
This cultural wave will reach people, amaze them, and bring delight to the world – that is what we strongly believe.
What is SwimmyDesignLab?
SwimmyDesignLab is a creative team working together in line with our shared philosophies to design and produce artwork based off of our CEO Taku Yoshimizu’s casual art.

Our Business
SwimmyDesignLab believes that all designing is branding, in the sense that the ultimate goal of design is to bring out the full potential of the subject of design. We achieve that by combining our unique strengths and producing various solutions.
Our strengths and value are demonstrated especially in the following four creative aspects.
We perform thorough research and listen intently to our clients in order to analyze their issues and problems. We then draw up and develop a strategy that is effective as well as feasible to achieve the set goals.
We promptly carry out the strategy with our unique ideas. We act as a director who creates concepts and various content, thereby providing the optimal solutions to fulfill the goal.
SwimmyDesignLab has established cooperative relationships with a large number of reliable partners through our new style of business. This allows us to take on any kind of project by casting skillful and talented specialists ideally suited to the task at hand.
SwimmyDesignLab creates visual content that bridges art and commerce. Our designs make use of the characteristics of the materials as well as the types of media, such as digital and print media, physical products as well as space.
SwimmyDesignLab offers 12 types of solutions produced by flexibly combining our four key strengths described on the left.
