白色不仅在日本文化中扮演着重要的角色，而且在无印良品的艺术总监kenyahara的作品中也扮演着重要的角色。在《白百》中，Hara给出了100种白色的例子，比如雪、冰、大米和蜡。在这些例子的基础上，他讨论了白色在设计中的重要性——不仅作为一种颜色，而且作为一种哲学。哈拉描述了他如何用不同的白人做实验，他们在他的工作过程中意味着什么，以及他们如何影响今天的设计。《白百》是原书《白色》的延伸。这本书探讨了白色的本质，原原认为白色象征着简单和微妙。

White not only plays an important role in Japanese cultures in general but also in the work of Kenya Hara, art director for Muji. In 100 Whites, 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. 100 Whites is the extension of Hara's previously published book White. The publication explores the essence of white, which Hara sees as symbolizing simplicity and subtlety.

Kenya Hara (born 1958) is a Japanese graphic designer, a professor at the Musashino Art University and, since 2002, the art director for Muji. Hara has been awarded many prizes, such as the Japanese Cultural Design Award.
