This is the third studio album by Japanese singer-songwriter Toshiki Kadomatsu. The artwork photo was taken by Yutaka Onaga. This would also be his first studio album under Air Records.

The album title and the artist’s name at the front and back cover are set in caps from a light weight of Virginia by Lettergraphics, a typeface known in Japan as Joannie. At the bottom left of the back cover, the English text is set in Helvetica, and the Japanese text is set in an oldstyle variant of Ishii Mincho.
