  • NTTと東レが共同開発した新機能素材“hitoe”のネーミング、ロゴ開発、キービジュアル開発、コンセプト映像、プレゼンテーション用コスチュームのデザインを企画制作。
      “hitoe”は、human(人間)、intelligence(情報・知能)、to(〜のほうへ)、expand(拡張する)の意味を持ち、“hitoe”の文字には、人の姿や動きが感じられるように創造した。hは座り、iは立ち、tは跳び、oは二人が手を取り合い、eは胎児のような、一文字一文字にもイメージがあり、人のつながりが新たな命を運ぶという願いと、さらには、一枚の布、単衣(ひとえ)の無限の可能性という意味も込めている。

    An innovative new censoring fabric “hitoe” developed by NTT and Toray. We produced and directed the product name, the logo, the key visual, the concept movie and the costume design for press presentation.
      The name “hitoe” is a mix of “human”, “intelligence”, “to”, and “expand” and each letters represents human figure and motion; “h” as sitting, “i” as standing, “t” as jumping, “o” as holding hands, and “e” as a baby in a womb. “hitoe” was created to connect people and to bring new life. The Japanese word “hitoe” which means a piece of cloth, gives an impression of infinite possibilities.
