Along with two other prominent designers—Ikko Tanaka and Tadahito Nadamoto—Mitsuo chose 600 basic colors from among 3,000 candidate colors and presented them in attractive and inspiring combinations. This work became a reference for all Japanese printing companies and earned DIC recognition as a leading name in the field of color engineering.
