About Life Science Code Sesudusuwa
Sesudusuwa sena se hlahisa kgopolo ya Saense ya Bophelo e theilweng hodima tatelano ya genome ya DNA, motheo wa Saense ya Bophelo. Genome ke kgopolo ya bophelo ho tloha mathomong ho ya jwale, mme sesudusuwa se kenyelletsa dintho tsa tlhaho tse godisitseng batho, le bokgoni ba matsoho bo fetisitsweng mehlakoreng ka Japane, e le melatswana ya bophelo. Ha ho ama mathomo ao batho ba bokaneng, sesudusuwa se bontsha diphiri tsa saense ya bophelo di senolwang ka mehopolo ya batho.
About the Moputso oa Platinamo oa A' Design Award
Life Science Code Sesudusuwa ke mohapi oa Moputso oa Platinamo oa A' Design Award, kananelo e hlomphehang haholo e fuoang meralo e ikhethang ka sebele, e ntle le e khanyang. Bahapi ba Platinamo ke limakatso tsa boqapi, bopaki ba meeli ea boqapi ba kelello, mme ba bontša botsebi bo sa lekanngoeng le bohlale ba baqapi ba bona. Meralo ena e lebelletsoe ho ba mesebetsi e tsebahalang haholo e hlalosang botle ba nako, e kenyang letsoho bophelong bo botle ba sechaba mme e sutumelletsang meeli ea bonono, mahlale, moralo le theknoloji. Life Science Code Sesudusuwa e bontša boemo bo phahameng ba bokhabane mme ntle le pelaelo e etsa hore lefatše le be sebaka se molemo ka litšobotsi tsa eona tse molemo le tse nang le boleng.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- Chugai Pharmaceutical's Life Science Park commissioned a monument to convey the mysteries and unknown possibilities of life science. As life science now drives drug creation by unlocking genomic information from human DNA, the monument compiles diverse memories etched in our DNA. This includes natural materials evoking Life and materials created by human hands, representing Science, aiming to embody the essence and potential of life science.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- This 6m x 1.5m x 2.2m monument embodies human and Earth memories. Its design, based on the human genome sequence, integrates diverse materials: ancient stones, local flora, native trees and medicinal herbs. A transparent stone base, evoking water as the source of life, is illuminated from within, highlighting the genome's varied expressions. The DNA derived design reveals life's mystery through shifting perspectives.

- Production Technology
- This monument crystallizes memories from nature, technology, and culture, archiving them for future generations. It juxtaposes normally incompatible memories, creating a unique landscape and prompting reflection on sustainability. Wood scraps were recycled into furniture, and metal scraps were reused, embodying circularity.
- Design Challenge
- This monument, while not directly generating profit, aims to inspire and provide spiritual support to life science researchers. It expresses the invisible mysteries of life science, a field filled with the unexplained, where researchers strive to improve human well-being. By touching the depths of people's hearts, this monument hopes to bring color and inspiration to their work, supporting their challenge against the mysterious world of life science.
- Research
- We were deeply moved to realize that our own DNA contains the inherited memories of the earth. Therefore, we carefully investigated various memories up to now, and collected a wide variety of memories, including natural objects created over a long period of time, human culture and technology, and memories of Chugai's pharmaceuticals.
- Inspiration
- Chugai's Life Science Park commissioned a monument to convey life science's profound mysteries. The design, mirroring drug creation through genome analysis, uses human genome sequences. The resulting patterns evoke life's beauty and complexity, encoding evolution and human essence. Integrating time-nurtured memories, the monument embodies life's enigmatic mystery. It stands as a testament to the intricate and beautiful nature of life, revealed through the very code that defines us.
- Project Duration
- This project was completed in May 2024
It is located at Chugai's new research facility in Totsuka, Kanagawa, Japan. - Operation Flow
- Researchers viewing this monument can draw inspiration from its unique landscape, filled with memories from nature, technology, and culture. Viewers' reflections become part of the monument, symbolizing the present moment alongside diverse memories. It aims to convey that genomes exist within us, hinting at unknown possibilities.
