About Environment Day Vaateaken

Keskkonnapäev on jaeturu vaateaken, mis on loodud ühele Istanbulis asuvale kauplusele. Vaateaken sisaldab käsitsi valmistatud kuivanud maapinna seina, mis tõmbab tähelepanu möödujatele. Idee tekkis põua ja Maa loodusvarade hävimise teemast. Roheline väli on kavandatud tungima läbi kuivanud pinnase, näidates, et taastumine on ikkagi võimalik. Kuivanud pinnas moodustati MDF-plaatidele kantud savist, mis kuivatati päikese käes ühe nädala jooksul, et tekitada pragunenud pind. Rohealad on valmistatud samblikust ja tähed on lõigatud puidust. Ligikaudu 98 protsenti vaateaknast on valmistatud jätkusuutlikest ja organilistest materjalidest.

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

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.
