Description

The project is about creating a holistic experience based on sensorial identity, flexible identity, emotional dimension, interaction, and storytellings. The best way to experiment with these elements was to create a fictitious country. The country called, ‘Republic of GaOn’, which means the center of the world, and created city identity along with the characteristic of the country. The core value is to understand and respect cultural, historical, and environmental aspects and embrace the diversities. Additionally, Storytelling must contain a connection with the real world. Therefore, storytellings and the architectures are all influenced by existing countries, yet including fiction, to let people sympathized and believe it is actually the existing world and city. Project is not only to discover the importance of how to execute the communication methods, but also it is important how much designers understand and well project the city’s life, and people’s life.
