The Design
About Hua Shanday هویت بصری
هوا شاندای هویتی بصری است که برای منطقه دیدنی هواشان در گوانگشی چین، یکی از میراثهای جهانی یونسکو، طراحی شده است. این هویت از هنر صخرهای دوهزارساله هواشان که توسط مردمان لوئویوئه خلق شده، الهام میگیرد. توتمهای باستانی که نیایش آیینی و کار جمعی را به تصویر میکشند، استخراج شده و بهصورت نمادهای هندسی ساده و شفاف بازآفرینی شدهاند. پالت رنگی، رنگ اُخرای سرخ نقاشیهای صخرهای اصلی را حفظ میکند. این سیستم بر روی تابلوهای راهنما، پوسترها و رسانههای دیجیتال اجرا شده است، بهگونهای که مسیریابی نیز به تجربهای آموزشی و در دسترس تبدیل میشود.

- Production Technology
- The visual identity is designed with a digital first approach to minimize physical waste utilizing scalable vector graphics for online promotion and digital exhibitions. For necessary physical applications such as signage and merchandise the design strictly adheres to sustainable practices utilizing recycled paper stocks and soy based inks. The color palette remains faithful to the heritage site utilizing the specific Huashan Red ochre derived from the original hematite pigment used in the rock art ensuring visual consistency and cultural respect.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was to breathe new life into ancient pictograms without losing their historical authenticity. Traditional approaches often result in rigid copying or overly abstract interpretations. The challenge was to find a balance making the 2000 year old symbols speak to a digital native audience while preserving their solemn heritage value. The solution lay in the methodology of contemporary reconstruction simplifying the complex rock textures into clean iconic graphics that are adaptable across media while retaining the soul of the original Luoyue visual language.
- Research
- This research revitalizes the 2000 year old Huashan Rock Art UNESCO World Heritage for modern audiences. The team employed visual archaeology to decode Luoyue totems known as the Frog Man and extracted their geometric DNA from ancient pigments. These forms were reconstructed using contemporary design principles. The resulting visual system preserves historical authenticity while ensuring educational accessibility for future generations.
- Inspiration
- The design draws direct inspiration from the awe inspiring Huashan Rock Art in Guangxi created by the Luoyue people during the Warring States period to the Eastern Han dynasty. We focused on the iconic monochromatic red ochre figures specifically the distinct forms representing ritual prayer The Frog Man and collective labor. The raw power dynamic postures and the spiritual connection between humans and nature found on the cliff faces served as the primary visual source. We sought not to copy but to decipher the primitive energy of these ancestors and translate it into a modern graphic narrative.
- Project Duration
- The project started in September 2025 in Guangxi, China and finished in December 2025. The project is located in the Huashan Scenic Area, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China.
- Operation Flow
- The design functions as an accessible cultural gateway. By simplifying archaeological figures into intelligible modern icons it lowers the cognitive barrier for visitors. The visual system is applied across the scenic area turning wayfinding and branding into an educational experience. Visitors can instantly recognize the motifs connecting the graphics on their tickets or phone screens directly to the cliffs in front of them. This creates a cohesive narrative loop that transforms a passive viewing of archaeological ruins into an engaging relatable cultural discovery.
