Sato Hisao

Sato Hisao is a freelance product designer based in London. His main category is toy design. In fact, he is thinking his works are not toys. It's something like "Playfulness objects" or "Tools for happiness". He just wants to make something fun for people. And then, people call it "Toys" eventually...... anyhow. He is more than happy when his works make a smile for someone.
