Upper Playground's line of home accessories connects you to culture and counter-culture. Long known as an innovator among design and fashion establishments in San Francisco, where its original "more than a store" is located, Upper Playground has produced fashions and films that connect the public to world-famous artists and designers as well as emerging talents.

Matzu's work is a blend of traditional Japanese aesthetics (the use of color palette and flat graphical features) fused with modern western sensibilities (typography, composition, size and theory). By this mix Matzu makes an effort to create something new that no one has seen without modification of whats already been around.
