Ikebana Party

Layout, Page, and Book Design, Illustration, Collage, and App Design

The Harmony Blooms : Ikebana Party is a monthly or annual interactive performance and gathering, giving participants a chance to unwind and enjoy themselves. The magazine is designed to highlight the event and guide communities in organizing creative gatherings or events within their groups.

Creative Brief

A plan is established for a recurring event held monthly or annually, inviting participants, family members, friends, and local communities to engage in the art of Ikebana, the creative Japanese flower arrangement.

A newsletter magazine is designed to extend invitations to potential participants, and a mobile app is developed to generate structures that guide participants in forming and arranging their flowers.

Approach

For the poster and magazine, the timeless beauty of Mona Lisa is featured as the central figure, elegantly dressed in a Kimono to invite participants with an air of excitement and allure. The magazine is structured using a grid system to ensure clarity and accessibility for all community members.

The mobile app is created with scripts that generate random outcomes, employing simplistic shapes to produce structures. Participants are guided to select the structure they feel most comfortable with, fostering creativity and engagement.

Impact

Even small communities benefit from both traditional and contemporary methods, with a physical magazine and online or printing event poster designed to engage participants while embracing technology through a mobile app and motion graphics to elevate the creativity of the event.

Invitations are extended to participants across social media platforms, leveraging multimedia designed for diverse audiences. Additionally, this work functions as a prototype for other recurring projects, showcasing the integration of traditional and modern approaches.
