A distinctive and sparkling face mask created in collaboration with Saborino 《HERALBONY NEWS November 2012 issue①》
Good evening, this is Marie, a HERALBONY staff member.
"HERALBONY NEWS" introduces our latest endeavors. This month, we have a lot of news to share with you.
"Adventure World"
Safari-themed extravaganza opens at restaurant
Unique art at "Safari Restaurant, where everyone can shine as themselves."
Adventure World is a theme park in Shirahama, Wakayama Prefecture, known for breeding pandas. HERALBONY was in charge of the art curation for the safari restaurant Jambo, which reopened on November 7th.
In keeping with Jambo's vision of being a "universal restaurant" where everyone can shine as themselves and enjoy food while respecting diversity, the restaurant is decorated with safari-inspired art such as Masahiko Kimura 's "Giraffe 2" and Shunichi Iwase's "Elephant and His Happy Friends."
Jumbo continues to provide opportunities for staff with disabilities to work full-time, and is also committed to valuing the uniqueness of its employees, such as by introducing an avatar robot called OriHime, which allows people with mobility issues who have difficulty going out for various reasons, such as disabilities or serious illnesses, to serve customers remotely.

A collaboration with Saborino that brings magical colors to mind
A special art mask box has been created, combining Saborino's "Early Morning Sheet" and "Tiredness Mask" with unique art.
Based on the theme of "Life with ART, " Taisuke Kinugasa 's illustrations "Ruby's Feelings," "Yellow Diamond," and "Flying Perfume" are used. Kinugasa's sparkling colors are sure to enrich your spirit every time you use Saborino.
Why not try enjoying your daily skincare routine with this uplifting face mask that will lift your spirits just by keeping it on your bathroom sink or dresser?

In addition, we received a wonderful comment about this collaboration from Kinugasa's mother, which we would like to introduce as well.

Thoughts put into the art
"Ruby's Feelings"
Taisuke Kinugasa
"Ruby's Feelings. Even though the color is the same red, Taisuke uses dozens of different shades of red to paint. His favorite color red is expressed in all sorts of ways, and that's what makes his work so distinctive. Whenever a painting is nearing completion, he always draws a heart somewhere on the canvas.
And he calls the heart "feelings." Hearts are a universal language, but it makes you realize that they are the very essence of the "heart" for everyone. There is also a small smiley face in the design. At the end, he writes this mark and says, "Hello!" It's like his signature."
"Yellow Diamond"
Taisuke Kinugasa
"Yellow Diamond. Diamonds that shine yellow. Taisuke loves to draw pictures of gemstones. Usually, we tend to think of them as just one color, yellow, but inside a brilliant-cut yellow diamond, many colors are hidden. This time, in line with the theme of yellow, he limited the colors he used to yellow paints and expressed a multitude of sparkling colors.
Here too, there is a "Hello" sign, and the dancing alphabet letters make it immediately obvious that this is Taisuke's work.
What's really great about the box design this time is that the art is bold and takes up the entire package.
He really enjoys painting with just one color. The same red can be a cool red, a passionate red, a deep red, or any number of other colors, and by combining these he creates a diverse worldview. Watching him create this work, I feel like the adult mind, which tends to be swayed by stereotypes, is liberated.
