De Taichung Public Library Notam Identitatis

Cum primum aedificium in Taiwan ad museum artis et bibliothecam iungendum sit, creatio notae systematis Taichung Bibliothecae Publicae in fusione naturae et civilisationi focus est. Consilium philosophiae in lumine ponit inconsutilem integrationem modernae architecturae cum elementis naturalibus et intendit ut sensum novitatis et inquisitionis evocet. Systema notans fovet atmosphaeram quae visitatores hortatur ut in varias experientias culturales ingrediantur Bibliothecam praebet et frui proportionem inter humanitatis civilizationem et silvarum tranquillitatem.

Post Designum

Fasciculus Nuntii

Merita, sodales gregis et singula technica a designatore praebita.

Proprietates Singulares: The designer uses graphics in blocks as the primary design element, incorporating books and the Chinese character "Chung", and aligning with the building's square design. The Logo's undulating pattern suggests flexibility, like diving into an ocean of books. Green represents nature and growth, fitting with the Library's mission. Meanwhile, the black block provides visual contrast and suggests stability and authority, reflecting the Library's role as a reliable source of knowledge.
Dimensiones et Involucrum: Minimum size of logo: 35mm x 6.5mm
Notulae: Visual Identity, Logo, Branding, Graphics, Printed Matter
Technologia Productionis: All the graphics were created and designed with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
Provocatio Designandi: As the Library's anticipated opening is still several years away in 2025, the designer faces the challenge of limited information to inform the design process. This lack of data poses significant difficulties and requires the designer to think creatively and imaginatively to craft a design that accurately captures the essence and identity of the Library. Additionally, the designer must remain adaptable to any changes that may arise in the intervening years, ensuring that the final design remains relevant and effective upon the Library's opening.
Investigatio: The black block is strategically placed on the upper side of the Logo, where the Library's position is relative to the park. The Chinese wordmark is set in Noto Sans, while the English wordmark uses Avenir. To ensure visual consistency and alignment with the Logo, the designer modified the proportion and details of the wordmark. The block-shaped graphic element is carefully integrated with the library building's square design, emphasizing the relationship between the brand and its physical space.
Inspiratio: The design was inspired by the concept of "Library in the Park, Art Museum in the Forest". The brand system focuses on the fusion of "nature" and "civilization". The Logo draws inspiration from books and the Chinese character "Chung" from Taichung. The architectural appearance was also a source of inspiration, with the Library standing tall amidst the forest, blending natural and cultural elements. It allows one to experience the influence of modern civilization while being surrounded by the pristine nature of the woods.
Duratio Operis: December 2020 to January 2021, Taiwan
Cursus Operationis: The wordmark can be customized and used as exterior signage, depending on the branch name. The Logo can be applied to the library merchandise. With the extension of the graphic units and color palette, identification can be present on various products and official documents with the system.
