WOW25th Anniversary Project | Logo Design
We held an in-house competition to create a logo, to commemorate the WOW's 25th anniversary. The concept on which the design was chosen entailed a circle that represented a group of members each with their own individual personalities. The overlapping of such personalities joins together to create the infinite (∞) power of expression.

To further develop this logo, volunteers within the company created a logo movie. In this movie, each designer provided their own interpretation of the 25 year journey of WOW, either from a group or individual perspective, and presented their works.

WOW25th Anniversary Project

Concept
“Based on the belief that the true essence of WOW is ‘expectation’ and ‘change,’ on this occasion, we created a video based on the concept of ‘feeling’ and ‘foreseeing’ something that seems to be visible but cannot actually be seen. When designing this work, there was the idea of overlap between anticipation of ‘what can be done next?’ with WOW's constantly surprising approach to manufacturing. This is the ‘sense of expectation of WOW’ created by all of us over the course of 25 years. To do this it is necessary to not give in to the pull of inertia, and constantly change, staying ahead of the changes occurring in the world. This video includes this attitude of ‘change’ as something that exceeds the essential ‘expectations’ of WOW. The video concludes with a ‘reset screen.’” —Shingo Abe
