Much Peace, Love and Joy

1.“Much Peace, Love and Joy”
By special letterpress printing, inimitable gradations are printed with vivid colors, and the printed matter is then hand-tore into pieces all with its unique shape. The work is then composed by accumulating a huge number of those pieces. The accumulation of gradient fragments is a metaphor for existence, situations, and perspectives. It arouses energy and imagination for the future when viewers visualize their own sto-nes, lands, drift ice, lives, and souls.

2.“Mesh Virus-Control Flag Partition”
A new item to color the space by fusing the joy of colors and the new virus-suppressing technology. The use of polyester mesh is adopted- it’s also used as a filter in the medical field. With the attachment of nanoparticles produced in a new technology that can suppress viruses and bacteria by 99.9%, it helps to sanitize and prevent droplet infection. The vitality of colors fills the space with joy and creates a new life-style for easy but safe communication.

Spread is a creative unit founded by Haruna Yamada and Hirokazu Kobayashi. It fuses the long-sighted environmental approach of landscape design with the vivid visual techniques of graphic design, incorporating environment, living creatures, objects, time, history, glyphs, and memory into their creative work as they strive to expand (“spread”) whatever subject they take on. By facing society and engaging in the act of creation, they have sought to change the present and create new experiences. Their projects use color as the primary medium, and by dismantling and rebuilding memory, we spread multidisciplinary creations to the future.
