I want to respect the "space" where animals live.

A quick note
The bags and brooches are designed with a playful spirit, using a single brushstroke that runs uninterrupted from start to finish.
The bag and brooch are sold separately, allowing you to customize your bag's home with your choice of residents.
Manual
The bag features a design of the apartment where animals live, drawn in a single stroke.
Using a type of printing technique called silkscreen printing, the designs are carefully printed by hand onto each bag.
Animal Stories
The window-themed brooch also comes with a set of hand-drawn illustration cards that tell the stories of animals living in the forest.
Not only can you customize it for your bag, but you can also attach it to your clothes, hat, or anywhere else you like.

He has been living with animals since he was a child and is an avid animal lover. He now has an annual passport to all the zoos and aquariums in Japan.
How this collaboration came about
As a friend of Waji's who has been friends for a long time, a casual conversation in the workshop led to the idea of trying out drawing animals on bags and leather. He then compared the bag to a forest and wondered if he could arrange the animals in a set of bag and brooch. He placed the painted animals in a space called a forest apartment, and created a work that used the bag as a place of expression.
