This cover illustration was designed by Sato Koichi (佐藤晃一) for the book Creative Works of Shiseido, published by Kyuryudo (Tokyo) in 1985. The artwork features bold, abstract forms and glowing gradients in deep red, blue, and green tones, with stylized lips at the center, a symbol of beauty, sensuality, and modern elegance. Sato’s design reflects the experimental spirit of 1980s Japanese graphic art, combining minimalism with emotional intensity. The flowing lines and luminous colors suggest both movement and refinement.
