TACTICS DESIGN-O-SERIES

I have been handling there TACTICS DESIGN (products for men) posters for The Ginza (Shiseido Group) for the past several years. Each of the 13 characters is about A size, making a total of 13 posters in a series. I have been designing one such series every year for the past 9 years. There is a specialty store retailing the TACTICS DESIGN PRODUCTS in the Imperial Hotel Arcade and that shop has a sign-frame which accommodates the 13 posters which, together, comprise the shop sign. This means that the sign is changed each year when the new design is completed. Of course, the posters are used in other “The Ginza” shops as well.
