Concept

We propose wooden cardholders with which you can display your cherished memories. You can create an original streetscape by arranging the cardholders. Keeping in mind the theme of the Aichi Triennale 2013 “Awakening – Where Are We Standing? – Earth, Memory and Resurrection”, we silhouetted symbolic Aichi Prefecture buildings. We also worked to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from incineration by using for our product the recycled branches of the trees lining the streets in the vicinity of each building. This product will remind people of the Triennale and the streetscape while arousing interest in Aichi’s cities and environmental issues.
