My name is Akira Yamaguchi and I'm a junior graphic designer. My portfolio consists of Poster Design, Editorial Design, Illustration and more.

Don't Touch My Baby

Peeling off an animal’s skin isn’t luxurious. It’s disgusting and morally wrong. Your expensive leather handbag was once a living creature. It had its own life and you took it away.

We were commissioned by Clear Channel Schweiz to design a poster under the theme of respect. Following my passion, I chose to deal with the subject of respect for animals.

An angry crocodile shouts at the viewer while protecting her babies. But ironically one of her babies is a crocodile leather handbag. Is the handbag so authentic that the crocodile doesn’t realize that her baby turned into a handbag?

My poster won a Junge Grafik award and was featured on their website and in a printed publication and exhibited in multiple locations across Switzerland.
