O dizajne Hiroshima Peace Song Výstava

Dizajnér vytvoril dizajn predstavujúc si, ako sa jediná kvapka vody rozšíri do kaskádového vodopádu, pričom použil text Hirošimskej piesne mieru. Inšpirovaný princípmi podobnými japonskému zenu je dizajn umiestnený na jednoduchom pozadí tak, aby jeho jednoduchosť nadobúdala hlbší význam, čím viac ho človek pozoruje. Anglický text Hirošimskej piesne mieru, ktorá sa každoročne spieva na konci Pamätnej slávnosti mieru 6. augusta, je použitý na symbolizovanie toho, ako sa mier môže šíriť navonok.

Jedinečné vlastnosti: I created this design by envisioning how a single droplet of water expands into a cascading waterfall, using the lyrics of the “Hiroshima Peace Song.” Inspired by principles akin to Japanese Zen, I placed the design on a plain white background so that its simplicity yields deeper significance the more one observes it.

To portray the flow of the waterfall, I studied Leonardo da Vinci’s manuscripts on water dynamics. I used the English lyrics of the “Hiroshima Peace Song”—chorused every year at the end of the Peace Memorial Ceremony on August 6—to symbolize how peace can spread outward. A single droplet represents an individual, while the river and waterfall evoke the collective consciousness extending from that individual. The molecular clusters of water, signifying human connections and communities, are woven into various parts of the design.

Rather than a commercial endeavor, this project aims to express a deeper, essential meaning of peace.

Výrobná technológia: This poster exhibition was held at the Former Bank of Japan Hiroshima Branch, a historic building located in the heart of Hiroshima and just 380 meters from the bombing’s hypocenter. Because many local citizens attend, we aimed for an immediately striking design. We utilized Akzidenz-Grotesk, a historically significant typeface, for the primary typography, while the exhibition’s title features Gotham—famously used for the film “Oppenheimer”—to add deeper resonance.

We chose a black-on-white monochrome palette to ensure that the showcased works would stand out, including “Hiroshima Appeals” posters, professional designers’ pieces, and a total of 68 selected student posters. Recognizing the classic architecture of the building and its profound historical context, we strove to create a visual presentation that harmonizes with its setting.
Dizajnérska výzva: We focused on conveying both Hiroshima’s global reputation—rooted in its cultural and historical significance—and the city’s present calm, peaceful atmosphere, encouraging visitors to experience both. All of the exhibited works advocate peace, making this a truly remarkable poster exhibition. Our primary goal was to spark interest while ensuring the design carried a deeply meaningful message.
Výskum: We were able to welcome a large number of visitors. The Former Bank of Japan Hiroshima Branch is located in the heart of Hiroshima’s bustling downtown, where many commuters pass by each day. The prominent Exhibition Banner Tapestry at the entrance successfully attracted people’s interest and drew them in.

Additionally, A4 flyers were placed in the Atomic Bomb Museum and various municipal offices, which also helped bring in many attendees. Overall, we believe this event provided a valuable opportunity for many to reflect on peace once again.
Inšpirácia: When designing the “Hiroshima Peace Poster Exhibition 2024,” an annual event organized by JAGDA Hiroshima, my primary goal was to create something truly meaningful. In 2025, Hiroshima will mark 80 years since the atomic bombing, and even in 2024, key events like the release of the film “Oppenheimer” and the G7 Summit highlight the importance of revisiting the concept of peace.

I chose to blend the lyrics of Hiroshima’s “Hiroshima Peace Song” with water—a symbol both of what bomb survivors longed for and of Hiroshima’s modern cityscape—to convey an essential message through typography, while also reflecting the city’s peaceful atmosphere today. To accurately portray the flow of water, I studied Leonardo da Vinci’s manuscripts, focusing on his observations of fluid dynamics. Inspired by the image of a cascading waterfall, I hoped to evoke the sense of peace spreading outward among all who experience the design.

Pracovný postup: This design invites visitors to follow a visual flow, starting with the large tapestry and moving through various signage. Each element guides attendees through the exhibition, helping them connect more deeply with its theme of peace. By uniting water imagery, typography, and strategic pacing, the experience is both intuitive and immersive, encouraging thoughtful reflection and dialogue.
