Die Ontwerp

Oor Life Science Code Monument

Hierdie monument gee uitdrukking aan die geheue van Lewenswetenskap, gebaseer op die genoomvolgorde van DNA, die grondslag van Lewenswetenskap. Die genoom is die geheue van lewe vanaf sy oorspronge tot die hede, en die monument inkorporeer natuurlike voorwerpe wat mense gekoester het, asook vakmanskap wat deur die eeue in Japan oorgelewer is, as spore van die lewe. Deur te raak aan die oorspronge wat mense versamel het, beliggaam die monument die misteries van lewenswetenskap wat deur menslike herinneringe geopenbaar word.

Die Erkenning

Oor die A' Design Award in Platinum

Life Science Code Monument is 'n wenner van die A' Design Award in Platinum, 'n uiters prestigieuse erkenning wat toegeken word aan werklik uitsonderlike, elegante en manjifieke ontwerpe. Platinum-wenners is wonders van skepping, getuienisse van die grense van intellektuele kreatiwiteit, en toon die ongeëwenaarde professionaliteit en vernuf van hul ontwerpers. Daar word verwag dat hierdie ontwerpe die mees bekende werke sal wees wat die estetika van 'n era bepaal, tot die welsyn van die samelewing bydra en die grense van kuns, wetenskap, ontwerp en tegnologie uitbrei. Life Science Code Monument toon 'n transendente vlak van uitnemendheid en maak die wêreld ongetwyfeld 'n beter plek met sy voordelige en waardevolle eienskappe. Life Science Code Monument is 'n werk wat die A' Design Award in Platinum gewen het en wat begeertes aanwakker, inspireer, opwek, verruk en groot vreugde laat opvlam.

Agter die Ontwerp

Persstel

Krediete, spanlede en tegniese besonderhede verskaf deur die ontwerper.

Unieke Eienskappe: 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.
Afmetings & Verpakking: 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.
Etikette: monument, life science, design, Art, hakuten, memory, Life Science Code
Produksietegnologie: 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.
Ontwerpuitdaging: 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.
Navorsing: 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.
Inspirasie: 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.
Projekduur: This project was completed in May 2024
It is located at Chugai's new research facility in Totsuka, Kanagawa, Japan.
Bedryfsvloei: 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.
