FX's "The World of Shogun" delves into the history of warlords, samurai, and the rise of a formidable new empire. The series made Emmy history by winning 18 out of 25 nominations at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards, setting a new record for the most awarded single season of television.
Being part of the FX Design team and contributing to this monumental project for 14 months has been an unforgettable experience.

We venture into the deep sea of history, embarking on a quest to uncover the enigmatic era where the East converges with the West. Drawing inspiration from the intricate angles of Japanese architecture, we meticulously crafted each frame with care and precision. We paid homage to the ancient Kanji characters with every stroke, infusing the narrative with poetic flair. It's the unadulterated beauty hidden within Asian culture.
