Personalized Book Design

At I. Motai Design, we’re dedicated to crafting one-of-a-kind book concepts and designs that perfectly mirror a client’s vision. Designer Motai brings a wealth of experience to projects from his work in various design fields, including book design, packaging, and label design. He credits his success to his deep respect for client input, his creative ability to bring their ideas to life, and his adaptability and dependability. Motai sees every product, from wine labels to books, as a story waiting to be told. As a designer, his role is to capture that story and bring his clients’ concepts and goals to completion.

Motai, originally from Tokyo, Japan, moved to America to further his artistic journey. He holds a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) from the San Francisco Art Institute and an Associate of Arts (AA) in Advertising Design from Parsons School of Design in New York City. Motai has collaborated with a diverse range of clients across the country, from individual enthusiasts to professional writers and personal historians.

We're glad to have an informal discussion with you about a book project that you're contemplating, or to give you information regarding the design and production of a project you've begun.
