Concept for the Contest
Assets-04.png

The contest's concept was inspired by four creative themes representing the diverse cultures of this dynamic land. The set of colors used in the concept prioritizes contrasting palettes and vibrant color ranges, illustrating the contemporary and traditional culture of Taiwan based on four cities: Taipei, Taichung, Kaohsiung, Tainan. Thereby, we have taken the main image of the puzzle pieces that coordinate with the geometric graphic style, representing different parts of those cities.

 

In order for the main image of VAN•HOA to always ensure the highest flexibility and application for users, the maximum separation of the elements in the main image and the color set is an indispensable part to have can integrate the concept coherently from the sequence of physical events to the images sent to readers via social networks.
