About Hiroshima Dentetsu Ručnik za ruke

Ovaj suvenir ručnik, koji se prodaje u gradu Hirošima u Japanu, ima duboku povezanost sa istorijom grada nakon atomske bombe. Izrađen je od recikliranih origami ždralova, simbola mira, transformisanih u rajonske niti. Dizajn sadrži dvije varijacije: jednu sa tramvajskim brojevima koji se pojavljuju kroz otvor, i drugu sa tipografijom koja formira stepenice kada se otvori. Šara ručnika predstavlja javor, prefekturno drvo Hirošime, a njegove boje oponašaju dizajn tramvaja. Ovi proizvodi obuhvataju duh Hirošime, prenoseći želju za mirom.

Production Technology
This product is made by reusing origami cranes donated to Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and processing them into rayon thread.
It is a souvenir that prays for peace, and has a concept unique to Hiroshima.
Design Challenge
"The most challenging aspect was creating the package on a single A3-sized sheet of paper. It was necessary to reduce costs. The problem is how to create an appealing package design using just one sheet of paper. Specifically, it was difficult to manually create the layered and staircase-like structure of the paper. By making holes, you can show the material of the towel.
Research
This product has a design based on the symbol of Hiroshima and the atomic bombed train. It is hoped that this will arouse interest in the message of peace and Hiroshima's history, contributing to peace efforts and raising awareness of Hiroshima. These effects will contribute to the environment, revitalize local communities, promote tourism, and raise awareness of peace.
Inspiration
Hiroshima is a city that has been rebuilt since the atomic bomb was dropped in 1945. Many people bring origami cranes to the Atomic Bomb Dome and Peace Park to pray. There are also many tourists from overseas.
Products made from recycled paper cranes are souvenirs filled with wishes for peace.
Project Duration
This product will be on sale from April 2023. It is sold at souvenir shops in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park as a product targeting tourists and wishing for peace.
Operation Flow
This product is a souvenir with a wish for peace. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Hiroshima Peace Exchange Fund or the Atomic Bomb Dome Preservation Fund.
