The Birds of Tokyo

February 13, 2018

Illustrator Ryo Takemasa has a nice little collection of birds, all of which commonly call Tokyo home. His illustrations have a classic, retro quality about them, and share some of the fun, geometric simplicity of Charley Harper. It’s nice to see that even the biggest city on the planet has a healthy collection of winged friends calling it home. Via Spoon & Tomago:
