WOW Visual Design Conference and Release Party
'Future of Visual Design'
We are delighted to announce that we are holding design conferences and party to celebrate the release of our visual book WOW Visual Design and our 15th anniversary since the establishment.
Design and art; client work and original work. WOW have united different fields together, and challenged new expressions and technologies, which leads to shape various platforms beyond a design studio. We give an outline of visual design with publishing a book of our works.
At this conference, while we look back visual design through the book, it will be a good opportunity to appreciate the possibilities, and social functions and human relationships of visual design.
* We are afraid that conferences will be delivered in Japanese. English translation will not be served.

Fill Spector, an illustrated picture application for facebook
WOW have just released our original character Fill Spector. Fill is attracted to fit himself into an empty mold, whose habit is to fulfill any kind of dent, pit or an open space. We will bring up Fill through applications, games and toys. Keep checking Fill Spector.
The first product of Fill Spector is an illustrated picture application for facebook. Fill was lost in the human world one day, and since then, he goes and fits everywhere, over and over... Users can see Fill's journey through illustration every day. Try and have fun with Fill.
