Yoshito Hasaka | Metal Magazine
Lost in Translation, Enter the Void or this year’s award-winning Shoplifters have all one thing in common: they happen in Tokyo. A city that inspires and scares, a place where future and tradition coexist, and where people dress in white-collar shirts and suits, kimonos, or their favourite manga character. Yoshito Hasaka is a designer from there and loves his city above all. But it’s not his work as a designer that has caught our attention; it’s his superb photos of night cityscapes that have captivated us and made us travel forward in time to Akira’s Neo-Tokyo. We meet with him to discuss his love for all things artificial, shooting at night, and where can we get the best views of the city.
