About Environment Day Schaufensterdekoration

Environment Day ist eine Schaufensterdekoration, die für ein Geschäft in Istanbul gestaltet wurde. Die Installation zeigt eine handgefertigte Wand aus ausgetrockneter Erde, die die Aufmerksamkeit der Passanten auf sich zieht. Die Idee entstand aus dem Thema Dürre und dem Verlust der natürlichen Ressourcen der Erde. Eine grüne Fläche wurde so gestaltet, dass sie den trockenen Boden durchbricht und damit zeigt, dass Erneuerung noch möglich ist. Der trockene Boden wurde aus Ton geformt, der auf MDF-Platten aufgebracht und eine Woche lang in der Sonne getrocknet wurde, um eine rissige Oberfläche zu erzeugen. Die grünen Bereiche bestehen aus Moos, die Buchstaben sind aus Holz geschnitten. Rund 98 Prozent der Dekoration bestehen aus nachhaltigen und organischen Materialien.

Unique Properties: The window display is designed to create awareness and attract everyone passing through the store via striking hand-made drought wall. The design idea arose from the drought and the loss of Earth’s natural resources. In order to stress the importance of the action, a “greenfield” was designed that penetrates the “dryland”. To demonstrate Arcelik’s attitude about the environment, 98.2% of the display design was created from sustainable & organic materials.
Dimensions & Packaging: Window display's general dimensions: 4650 mm x 30 mm x 3140 mm
The surface of the showcase was created by coating MDF plates with clay.
The green plants on the showcase were created from moss.
The texts and the slogan were created by cutting wooden letters.
The red big company logo in the middle of the showcase is lacquered.

Production Technology: The dryland was made from clay and it “sundried” for a week to give the fissured appearance. For the design, a local clay artist has worked on the process for over 2 weeks. To demonstrate Arcelik’s attitude about the environment, 98.2% of the display design was created from sustainable and organic materials.
Design Challenge: The most challenging part was the soil background. The dry land was made from clay and it "sundried" for a week to give the fissured appearance. For the design, a local clay artist has worked on the process for over 2 weeks. To demonstrate Arcelik's attitude about Eart, 98% of the display design was created from sustainable & organic materials.
Inspiration: The hope of a small green plant emerging from dry soil is a great source of inspiration. A sustainable life is still possible if the importance given to the environment increases. It was thought that a design that give a clear message was necessary to say still have luck and invite this action.
Project Duration: The project design started in April 2021 in Istanbul and finished in June 2021 in Istanbul, and was exhibited in Arcelik Store Kadikoy Istanbul in June 2021. The project was designed for environment day, which is June 5th and it is still on display for awareness.
Operation Flow: Together with Arcelik, we aim to heal this world together with responsible production and consumption perspective. We'd like to inspire consumers to consume responsibly and join our activities to save Earth's recourses. If it will not happen in this way, we can't greener the land as we did in our retail showcase. This is the message that we aimed foır consumers.
