Capturing the Essence of Japan through Design
We strived for a design that exudes strength through its tranquility. The letters from front to back are coated with transparent foil, subtly standing out against the soft gray paper. The outer photographic side was printed with a slightly darker gray ink, over which a transparent foil stamping process was meticulously applied. The delicate tonality of the foil creates a seamless gradient across the image, allowing for smooth shading to emerge as the light and angle shift. It transcends mere expression, encapsulating the fluid changes and expansive potential of WOW. This design reflects WOW’s pursuit of harmony with society and its profound, innovative ideas.
