02. CONCEPT

Since the festival is a combination of technology and art, which is similar to an intersection of two different fields, we chose ''intersection'' as our concept.








03. LOGO

The logo is comprised of many circles stacked on top of each other to create intersections. It also entails a resonant meaning, echoing the title ''synergy.''

04. GRAPHIC ELEMENTS

The graphics consist of opposing elements, such as sharp and round, transparent and saturated, and thick with thin to correspond with the intersection.







05. TYPOGRAPHY

We used sharp and round corners to make up the typography, which also included two contrast elements.

Pink symbolizes traditional art, purple represents future technology, and green is the intersection of them.
