Master-piece was founded in Osaka, Japan, 1994 by Taichi Fujimatsu. Specialising in urban styled bags that are durable, functional and unisex, they’re known for using interesting materials and colours in order to merge design and functionality. The brand prides itself on the Japanese production processes of its in-house factories, based in Toyoka, roughly 20 minutes from the centre of Osaka.

Internationally ghetto : Life in a Karachi slum, PAKISTAN
The cultural heritage of the city is being systematically destroyed and can only be salvaged if its preservation is linked to a larger city development plan which takes into consideration the three planning principles mentioned above and removes lacunas in the present laws and regulations. These lacunas are well known to the authorities yet no action is taken to address them. Some of the mass transit solutions which are being proposed consist of building elevated transitways through the heritage zones which will destroy the little heritage that is left of Karachi뭩 unique colonial architecture. That such transitways will be a disaster for Karachi뭩 built-heritage has been well established, yet the proposals persist.
INTERNATIONALLY GHETTO V.1 : Badakhshan, Afghanistan
Badakhshan, bordering Tajikistan to the north, is far from the fighting with Taliban insurgents in the south, but is still one of Afghanistan’s poorest provinces. Those that fare worst live in the mountains where they are snowed in for up to six months of the year.
In outlying districts such as Raghistan, Kohistan and Darwaz, there is little cultivable land and people survive on mulberries and other types of wild food, aid workers say.
They keep a few sheep, goats and cows for food and dairy products, but winter is especially punishing.
“Malnutrition is very serious, they don’t eat fruit, or vegetables. It’s very difficult even for them to eat normal food like bread,” said Rona Azamyan, coordinator of the Midwifery Education Program in Faizabad, the main town in Badakhshan.
Because of malnutrition, many women die during childbirth and many children do not survive beyond the age of five.
In Afghanistan, 1,600 women die of complications out of every 100,000 live births, one of the worst rates in the world. Of every 1,000 newborn babies, 128 will not live beyond a year.
Malnutrition causes anemia and generally poor health, making people vulnerable to infections and illnesses such as tuberculosis. Malnourished children are likely to be stunted.
In Afghanistan, women tend to be the most malnourished in the family because of poverty and a lack of knowledge.
