In \u003ci\u003e100 Whites\u003c\/i\u003e, Hara gives 100 examples of white, such as snow, Iceland, rice and wax. On the basis of these examples he discusses the importance of white in design--not only as a color but as a philosophy. Hara describes how he experiments with the different whites he instances, what they mean in the process of his work and how they influence design today. \u003ci\u003e100 Whites\u003c\/i\u003e is the extension of Hara's previously published book \u003ci\u003eWhite\u003c\/i\u003e. The publication explores the essence of white, which Hara sees as symbolizing simplicity and subtlety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKenya Hara\u003c\/b\u003e (born 1958) is a Japanese graphic designer, a professor at the Musashino Art University and, since 2002, the art director for Muji.
