In addition to having led the recording as a producer, arranger and lead singer, satoko also directed the artwork and sound design for this album. The album artwork is by Japanese designer/painter Mei Obata, who based her design on a self-portrait by satoko. The artwork gives just the right introduction to the dreamy songs, which cannot be easily categorized into any genre. The mixing and sound design were done collaboratively by Yuzuru Tatsuta (SMASH Studio) and satoko, giving delicate voice/sound effect to each song.
