This is a publication about ‘Anticipation’ which talks
about a ‘waiting process’. In
this book, it includes my own personal thoughts on this
‘waiting process’(and act now) with some supporting
secondary research online. It also includes the photos
taken with the pinhole camera. That is where the whole
concept of ‘waiting’ came from. A story-telling book based on my family
history. The story is about this boy(my
father) who was actually interested in
computer science when he was young but
was asked to take over the family business
that he never thought he would. Time capsule doesn't have to be a container storing tons of objects. Instead, it can be an interesting object that showcases memories from time to time. Photos are the best replacement of the time capsule. It helps capture moments and preserve memories. This logo design is based on the characteristics of the restaurant itself. The restaurant has a unique pot so it becomes one of the elements for the logo. The logos also includes elements such as the chopsticks on both sides of the pot and the heart-shaped fire under the pot. The concept of this logo and identity is bonding. The bonding of family members and friends. The concept is to capture unforgettable moments by making someone's existence as precious as ours. Since we don't know how an image is formed, this experiment is taken using simple materials to see how an image from outside of the pinhole camera is formed on the inside.
