Tokidoki | designer Simone Legno | Learn his techniques online
A fusion of fashion, lifestyle, art, and culture embody the global vision of fresh innovative brand Tokidoki. Behind its trademark logo of a heart and crossbone reflecting "love, but love cautiously," Tokidoki--which means "sometimes" in Japanese--design features laughing flowers, winking stars, rainbows, sultry ingenues, and fluttering songbirds.
If you think Tokidoki is reminiscent of stuff by Japanese designer Murakami, you'd be right. The brand's artist, the Italian designer Simone Legno, is unabashingly charmed by Japanese culture. If you, too, are charmed, then hop over to TOKIDOKI: CREATIVE INSPIRATION (training course) which explores Simone's techniques and methods for building some of his popular Tokidoki characters using Adobe Illustrator. Peruse through his sketchbook, and learn how he creates one of his popular skatedecks from start to finish.
