Masahiro's commitment to design, especially in the realm of ceramics and porcelain is well known. As a young designer in the 50s, he was instrumental in bringing industrial design to Japan. Post-war Japan required a major shift in perception and focus, and Masahiro was a key player in transforming "Made in Japan" as a cheap alternative to "Made in Japan" as a quality choice. His keen eye for choosing designs that are both traditional and modern has garnered him a place in history as a visionary.
