If you guys like apples, then theres a high chance that you'll like Yusaku Kamekura's apples. Considered to be one of the founding graphic design pioneers during early 1900s Japan, Kamekura lived a respected life as being an important initiator in the design community.  He was a founding member in the Japan Artist Advertising Club (JAAC) as well as the Japan Graphic Designers Association (JAGDA).

Some of his best known works come from the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, where he has developed his own style in design, combining post-modern Western and traditional Japanese influence.
