He specializes in a wide range of design projects, from movie posters to logos and intricate package designs.

He has also received multiple Grammy nominations for projects like Black Sabbath - The Dio Years, Phish - The Clifford Ball, The Smith Tapes, and Grateful Dead - Get Shown the Light.
Furthermore, Masaki Koike was chosen by the City of Los Angeles to design a citywide campaign against hate crimes called "LA for ALL," showcasing his involvement in meaningful community projects.
