About Plants Trade Concept Book E Poster
PLANTS TRADE è una serie di una forma innovativa e artistica di esemplari botanici, che è stata sviluppata per costruire una migliore relazione tra uomo e natura piuttosto che materiali educativi. Il Concept Book di Plants Trade è stato preparato per aiutarti a comprendere questo prodotto creativo. Il libro, progettato esattamente nelle stesse dimensioni del prodotto, presenta non solo foto della natura ma una grafica unica ispirata alla saggezza della natura. Cosa ancora più interessante, la grafica viene stampata con cura in tipografia in modo che ogni immagine possa variare di colore o consistenza, proprio come le piante naturali.

- Production Technology
- The Concept Book used the foil printing on its white cardboard cover, the offset printing for 5 photographs and the letterpress printing for 14 graphics. The Poster used the offset printing for the photograph and the letterpress printing for the graphic.
- Design Challenge
- The difficulty in designing the Concept Book was in what way the designer should create graphics that can make people think of the nature’s wisdom. After consideration, the designer chose the letterpress printing for graphics to depict different colors or textures, just like real plants.
- Inspiration
- Plants Trade is a series of an innovative and artistic form of botanical specimens, not like the conventional ones that are merely used as educational material. The product was born to build a better relationship between humans and nature. The Concept Book was made to help people understand this creative product.
- Project Duration
- The project started in September 9th, 2017 in Tokyo and it is still ongoing. The Concept Book was published in Japan on that date and was exhibited at Tokyo Art Book Fair in October 2017, Shibuya Publishing & Booksellers in August 2018 and at Kamome Books in September 2018.
- Operation Flow
