From Tokyo to Tapiola Facebook cover

For the Tokyo to Tapiola exhibition, I created a wide range of animations and videos used throughout the exhibition and its communications. The content helped bring the stories, themes, and visual material of the exhibition to life, creating an engaging experience for visitors both on-site and online.

"From Tokyo to Tapiola" Exhibition Design

I developed the visual and graphic design for the From Tokyo to Tapiola exhibition, including marketing materials. I designed the exhibition architecture, poster, flyers, brochures, exhibition graphics, and social media materials. I also designed a custom mascot, Kiko, to enhance exhibition communication. Additionally, I designed four interactive play stations with custom props. I was also responsible for the design and procurement of products for the museum shop.

"From Tokyo to Tapiola" Marketing Collateral

I designed print-ready materials for Museum Leikki's From Tokyo to Tapiola exhibition, including the poster, flyers, brochures, exhibition graphics, and social media content. All visual assets were exclusively created by me from scratch.

Tokiosta Tapiolaan Exhibition Publication

I had the pleasure of designing and laying out Tokiosta Tapiolaan Exhibition Publication, a book born from the collaborative community curation of Museo Leikki and a dedicated network of hobbyists. This unique publication gives voice to Finnish enthusiasts of Japanese culture, weaving together hundreds of perspectives, memories, and experiences. Inside, you’ll find heartfelt quotes from fans, photographs of collectibles and memorabilia, snapshots of convention culture, and much more – including my own photography created specifically for the book. From lolita fashion lovers to vocaloid fans, from devoted anime viewers to passionate cosplayers – the book celebrates the vibrant and diverse fandom in Finland. More than just a publication, it’s a tribute to the way Japanese pop culture is not only embraced here but reimagined, lived, and made our own.
