CURRENTLY
At the core of Hikawa's work is a conviction that the most meaningful design happens at the intersection of art and lived experience. Her current development of MagSafe grip accessories is guided by direct conversations with the community and persons with different grip and physical experiences — an approach that treats accessibility not as an afterthought, but as a creative imperative.
