Pentagram sound design partner Yuri Suzuki has joined Dezeen Awards 2023 as a judge. Here, he selects five key projects that best reflect his work.
Suzuki uses sound and visual language to examine the relationship between people and their environments "questioning how both visual art and sound evolve to create personal experiences".
The Japanese artist has worked with various musicians including Will.i.am and Jeff Mills, as well as commercial clients such as Google, who he collaborated with to develop a unique AR Music Kit.
"I am working on multiple projects ranging from research and development for a high profile tech company, sound branding for the entertainment sector, as well as some new sound art installation pieces for both internal and public viewing across the world," Suzuki told Dezeen.
