Artist Books by Katsumi Komagata

• books that appeal to the senses
• books that inspire and delight
  
• books for adults and children alike
• books you can share with each other

The Japanese graphic designer Katsumi Komagata creates very special books, inviting the reader into a three-dimensional paperworld by using texture, colour, cut-out shapes and windows in his books.

Katsumi's colourful, playful and meticulously crafted books appeal to children and adults alike. These books are as much examples of book art for children as a delight for book lovers who appreciate the clarity of design and the tactile experience. Although only recently introduced to the UK, the books have already found their way into major museum and library collections.
