Question everything generally thought to be obvious.

My name is Sean Dixon and I am a designer based in Tokyo with a background in architecture. My process revolves around understanding the elements of an existing space and crafting a seamless harmony between the land and my creative vision. In my opinion, the goal as a designer is to create a product that goes beyond personal existence, achieving a timeless and universal presence.
