HEY LOOK WHAT I FOUND

I went to a used bookstore in Wakayama and found this killer digital design magazine. Check it out! I may translate some of it later, but no promises.

Contact me if you want any more scans :)

design plex (デザインプレックス) issue #25, from May 1999. contains an interview of Rodney Alan Greenblatt, character designer of Parappa, in preparation for his upcoming exhibitions in Japan.
