Kuro

KURO is a language of symbols. It’s made of 145 quiet silhouettes, soft, simple, and serene. Each one is drawn with minimal lines, often just a pair of eyes, but always enough to reveal its identity. There are no loud features. No noise. Just the essence.

The power of combining meanings

Shapes that feel like meaning
Every KURO character represents something we instinctively understand: a feeling, an animal, a flower, a myth. Each has a name, a quiet personality, and a symbolic meaning—like kindness, courage, longing, or change. They're not here to explain, but to be recognized.

Simple forms, deep recognition
Though abstract at first glance, these shapes are familiar. They speak through suggestion, not detail. The space between lines allows the viewer to feel what’s implied—to see a part of themselves in the shape.

KURO in collaboration

When KURO works alongside other imprints, it adds clarity and symbolism. With UNFOLD, it anchors emotional color in form. With Hanami Atelier, it gives a symbolic silhouette to flowers. . KURO brings structure to emotion, without saying too much.

Let the shapes stay quiet.
There’s no need to decode everything. Some symbols are meant to be felt before they are understood.
If one of them stays with you, that’s enough.
