Light was once considered a metaphysical symbol of something greater than god, greater than humans, but through the development of modern science, it has been identified as waves and particles. Once dismissed by science and technology, the idea that light is a metaphysical force is gaining attention once again.
When light is viewed microscopically, the light particles, though separated, are strangely moving in unison as if they were communicating telepathically. When the world is viewed macroscopically, light paints a picture onto a canvas of continents, in a dynamic depiction of an enormous life form, of movement, and of flow. It is sending a message that surpasses human understanding.
It is perhaps that the new visual experiences and knowledge bestowed upon us by science and technology give more depth and creativity to the mystery of natural life. To know light in our modern existence is to stand before the origin of life and question its meaning once again.

Based on Moncler's iconic down, MONCLER GENIUS is an ongoing project involving the work of eight groups of world-renowned creators. This revolutionary project has also lead to the creation of the concept store, HOUSE OF GENIUS, which has opened in Minami Aoyama and New York.
A limited special event called 6 MONCLER NOIR KEI NINOMIYA, featuring the elaborate designs and experimental approach of Noir Kei Ninomiya, was held from 12/8 (Saturday). DAISY BALLOON created the installations, including the works Cocoon (Mayu), Error Monduck, and Rubber Monduck. Customers who purchased NOIR KEI NINOMIYA items received a 6 MONCLER Rubber Monduck gift (NOIR KEI NINOMIYA × DAISY BALLOON).

Vibes | Humans are born as creatures with an inner space.
We have the innate ability to pick up vibrations emitted by the world such as sounds, tastes, smells, colors, and shapes.
However, unawares, we become eager to fill our inner space with whatever it may be.
Although we are able to enjoy creativity and feel delicate vibrations by staying empty
we eventually come to fear this state of emptiness.

All matter that exists in space moves from a state of disorder to order.
In this world of inherent disorder, our inner space must travel through a vacuum of emotions to pick up unseen vibrations that are different from ourselves, which are necessary to make harmony with disorder.

Vibes are the pure form of voice
Vibes are the aura of what exists
Vibes are the subconscious memories
Vibes are the symbol of brilliance
Vibes are the existence of the world represented as light

We believe the Japanese word IRODORI not only refers to the balance of colors, but has a deeper meaning that symbolizes age old culture that has taken root and has survived from generations past.
In this installation, we imagined our diverse world of IRODORI and represented a powerful burst of life energy from the center outwards. In life, small particles of energy spread into the vast world which then intertwine with nature and the atmosphere, making way for connections to the next generation. This work is a visual representation of this magnificent process.

In this work, we wanted to create a story about the relationship between “past and future” and “people and forest” that is present in Asahikawa. The story has three parts: The culture and customs of Asahikawa, the coexistence of people and the forest, and the metaphor that represents the birth of Asahikawa Furniture. Snow, forest, and people, which are the symbols of Asahikawa intermingle to create a cohesive shining mass. We hope you can feel the light that Asahikawa Furniture shines into the world.
Harmony | The snowmelt seeping into the land is a representation of the harmony created through the nature and people of Asahikawa (Photo 1).
Hito to Mori | The symbols of Asahikawa—snow, forest, people—each shine in their own way and come together to form a magnificent light (Photo 2).

Forward | We wanted to express a powerful vector aimed toward the future, which was something we felt when we visited Thailand. We focused on the individual life force, which becomes the force that moves an enormous societal system. From a microscopic perspective, this abundant energy that flows all throughout society may seem like independent bodies moving aimlessly, but we believe they are life forms existing within the vast backdrop of Thai culture. We, daisy balloon, believe that people exist as people/individuals while at the same time representing society/the greater whole. Our work is a representation of this idea where humans take on life and go through initiations at each life stage: birth, growth, chance encounters, cooperation, and creation.

Bridge|We, DAISY BALLOON, focused on dendritic cells that travel along the two antigen pathways of "natural immunity" and "acquired immunity" within our bodies. Dendritic cells attack pathogens that enter our bodies in the form of natural immunity, but more importantly, they also act as the bridge that provides the data for creating new acquired immunity. Living organisms have evolved to have "natural immunity" while at the same time continuing to create "acquired immunity" and we were drawn to this idea of acting as a bridge where information gets transferred along like a baton.

We represent the imaginary dream world of a young girl, based on the theme of "Dreaming for Christmas." The brightness that bursts from the core (symbolizing light), and the transparent spiral that wraps it (symbolizing consciousness) are the layers that form the girl's dream.

The exhibition “bionic by sputniko!” which showcases the future of biotechnological fashion, is coming to Seibu Shibuya. This exhibition is based on the notion of “what if the future brings clothing created through biological technology?” and is an experimental installation (showing growth during the exhibition) that considers fashion as an extension of the human body that can be generated biologically.
Daisy Balloon will present futuristic fashion adapted to four life scenarios: self-generation (sleep), the ability to extend our bodies to swim efficiently (exercise), to challenge our tastes and TPO (dating), and to give color to a brilliant moment of our lives (wedding).
