In those days this magazine was very influential, and public attention was attracted upon acute sensibility toward fashions of each periods reperesented by Ohashi's cover designs. Afterwards she participated in designs for poster of Pink House, publicities for Mitsui Bank and Tokyo Gas. With these activities images of Ohashi's works permeated our daily life.
