As part of the University of Tokyo ourselves, we work from the context you are in, in a way that stays true to the University's brand.

In the hands of professionals
In-house photographers, videographers, writers and translators, plus a network of creators outside the University. We assemble the right team for each project.
03
Recognisably UTokyo, at a glance
That doesn't mean every department uses the same designer. We look for a form that keeps each department's character while adding to a shared sense of the University.

Within the budget you have
Every project has different resources. Even with a limited budget, we'll think through what's possible together and propose a way forward.
