The Design

About Eco Expo Korea Poster

Eco Expo Korea este un design de poster și interacțiune web despre deșertificarea alimentară. Posterul este realizat în format A0 și are dimensiunile de 1189 pe 841 de milimetri. Mai multe straturi de pixeli apar și dispar peste imagini cu plante, deteriorându-le sau transformându-le în forme noi. Fiecare strat îl acoperă pe cel anterior, modificându-i proporția. Efectul face trimitere la o eroare 404 și evidențiază decalajul dintre planta originală și un nou concept selectat artificial. Designul își propune să sensibilizeze publicul cu privire la speciile de plante aflate în pericol de dispariție.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The graphic design '404 not found', displayed in 'Eco Expo' in 2019.
In the graphics, multiple pixel layers repeat their appearance and disappearance being damaged or transforming into new images. There are layers implying the concept of plants being artificially selected or vanishing away. The layer cover up the previous by cheaning its ratio. This represents the gap between the original plant and the artificially selected new concept as in the 404 error.
Dimensions & Packaging: It consists of poster and web interactive design. Poster has been created in the A0 size. It measures 1189mm x 841mm to be precise.

Design Challenge: We want to raise awareness about the current situation facing mankind through extreme settings in which the concept of food is newly established due to 404 errors.
Research: We investigated the raw materials (plants) of food that were disappearing.
Recognizing that there are fewer cases of encountering plant prototypes due to processed and fast food, the correlation was quantified and graphically made.
Due to excessive plant species improvement, aquaculture-type indoor cultivation, and industrialization, this situation, in which humans and plants become increasingly distant, contact points disappear, and forget what the raw materials are, was set up as the term "artificial selection of plant concepts" and applied to the design.
Inspiration: The earth faces the problem of 'Food Desertification' with the development of industrialization and processed food. The rapid decline in the number of plants, which are the raw materials for many foods, and genetically modified cultivation introduced a new generation of mankind who knows tomato ketchup but not the tomatoes. The 404 not found graphic shows how such food desertification deforms the original concept of plants and creates a new concept artificially selected.
Project Duration: The project was displayed at COEX Hall in Gangnam, Seoul, from October 13 to November 10, 2019.
Operation Flow: As multiple pixel layers cover the top and bottom of the object, it changes with the pollution level of the environment, the scale of industrialization, and the number of people in the current plant species. When all layers are full, they turn red.
Objects, which are hidden in layers and are increasingly invisible, tell us the progress of food desertification, and can graphically derive the progress of desertification of food that you have searched through the website.
