Design to support others.

About

SUKEDACHI DESIGN, founded in Fukuoka in 2013, is driven by the philosophy of “helping those who need design solutions,” inspired by the kanji “SUKE” (help) from the representative’s name. We prioritize deep client dialogue to create impactful concepts and offer consistent design services in branding, graphic design, digital media, and spatial signage. Our past projects include designing World Swimming Championships medals, Japan Heritage promotion projects, Miike Coal Mine panels, mentaiko packaging, promotional tools for a historic confectionery company, Hakata craft collaborations, and regional revitalization in Kumamoto.

Vision: Enhancing the local through design.

Using design, we aim to uplift individuals and locals, enhancing Japan’s brilliance for a brighter future. We will give back to the locals who have supported us by offering design solutions that benefit the next generation.

・・・

Mission: Supporting those who need design.

We focus on the pre-design phase, clearing biases and using varied perspectives to unlock customer interest. By aligning with clients’ goals, we contribute to their growth and share in their success.

・・・

Value: Find Unique Cutting in “WHY”.

People are driven by “why.” We uncover and organize the reasons behind a product’s creation and need, crafting expressions that truly resonate.

・・・

Action: Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.*

We use design to give back to our Kyushu and Fukuoka locals, aiming to create new regional value.
*Inspired by the words of inventor Albert Einstein
