About

Kosuke Shiraishi

Me in 10 sec

Having a background in Computer Science as well as a couple of years of experience in making a wide range of consumer products, I'm able to tackle design problems logically from both technical standpoints and users' perspectives. I'm a deep thinker who can solve design problems with well-thought-out rationales by understanding how people think and interact with artefacts.

Particular interests range broadly from education, entertainments, art to consumer products. I'm always exploring ways which technology and design can enhance our lives.
