RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Explore the traditional cultural elements of a city and a country to show more deep-seated thoughts. Their own ethnic culture is very attractive, but also to the greatest extent possible by the city people to accept. The use of contemporary design expression methods to express tradition, more can get everyone's love and recognition.
CHALLENGE: The combination of a city's traditional culture and a modern design sense is the hardest part of how it will be, and the other is finding the element that best represents the entire city's culture. We show the Eastern and Western languages, the ancient Chinese cultural artifacts, and ancient philosophical thoughts together, and use modern visual design techniques.
