ABOUT TE KIOSK
TE KIOSK（テ キオスク）は、デザイナー村手景子による、東京・浅草に拠点を持つDesign Studioです。長年雑誌のデザインに携わってきた経験を生かし、ひとつずつ丁寧に編み上げる、芯とストーリーのあるデザインを心がけています。
現在は、グラフィック、エディトリアル、ロゴなどを中心としながら、この他にも、編集、ネーミング、ブランディング、プロダクト、パッケージ、インスタレーションなど、幅広い領域を手がけています。また、国内外問わず様々な案件をお受けしています。
どのような案件でも、まずはご希望やお悩みをじっくりとお伺いするヒアリングを大切にしています。規模の大小にかかわらず、案件それぞれ、人それぞれ、事情も求めるものも違います。柔軟に会話を重ねながら、お話を整理・編集することで、本質を確かめあい、目の前にあることだけでなく、見えていなかった問題とその解決にもつなげていきます。
よりよいものにし、よりよく伝わるように。すぐに消費されるものより、永く愛せるものを。遊びごころや挑戦を忘れずに。ひとつひとつ、オーダーメイドであるからこそ、光る「らしさ」を。製作プロセスの段階から、そして完成したものが実際に使われるたびに、クライアントと社会と感動をわかち合い、よりよい影響が醸成されていくように。それがTE KIOSKが考えるデザインです。
そして、Studioの名前「TE KIOSK」には、以下のような思いが込められています。
TE：デザイナー村手の「手」を使って真摯に取り組む「手しごと」の創造力と精神性を大切にしています。
TE：TEはフィンランド語で「あなた」を意味する言葉です。かかわる全ての「あなた」にとって、ここは「あなた」のStudioでもあります。
KIOSK：ここは小さいけれど、オープンで立ち寄りやすく、様々なソリューション（と、ほっとひと息）を社会に提供している「キオスク」のようなStudioです。
アイデアとユーモアをご用意して、みなさまのご来TEを心よりお待ちしております！

TE KIOSK, the name of this studio is expressive of its mission;
TE: ‘Te’ is a part of the family name of Keiko Murate. It means ‘hand’ in Japanese. This studio respects creative power by hand.
TE: ‘Te’ also means ‘you’ in Finnish. This studio works for you. TE KIOSK is your studio.
KIOSK: ‘Kiosk’ is an approachable small booth offering various solutions (and, a feeling of relief) to us. This studio works like ‘kiosk’ in society.
TE KIOSK is looking forward to seeing you with ideas and humors for you!
