On March 10, our group had a detailed discussion about how to divide the work. We clarified each person’s role and made sure that both the visual and technical parts of the project can move forward smoothly. The video will be one of the main outputs.
The very important part of our discussion was developing the concept of six virtual countries based on different air quality conditions. Instead of using real-world countries, we decided to create fictional ones.
Each country represents a different type of air environment. For example, some countries have clean, fresh air, while others are polluted, heavy, or artificial. We also started to connect these air qualities with emotions and lifestyles. For instance, a country with “living air” might feel open, natural, and healthy, while a country with polluted air might feel oppressive and industrial.
Based on these ideas, we began designing passports for each country. The passports are not just visual objects, but also part of the storytelling. Each one reflects the identity of its country through color, symbols, and typography. We aim to keep a consistent design system across all six passports, while still giving each country its own unique feeling.
We also plan to include a universal stamp system, similar to customs stamps, to strengthen the idea of “traveling” between different air conditions. This helps turn the project into an immersive experience rather than just a visual presentation.
