About Our Logo

The white part of our COE project logo indicates how a sense of happiness or revitalizing conditions for hearts and minds is formed when three themes of our project, a sense of competence (capability), a sense of accomplishment, and a vital sense of life overlap.

This design was created by a visiting professor, Akio Okumura, Academic Center for Computing and Media Studies, Kyoto University.  Prof. Okumura is a well-known graphic designer who created a number of designs such as symbol marks for Rohto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and Diamor Osaka, CI Mark of Glico, and various package designs for Glico, Gekkeikan, Tanabe Seiyaku Co., Ltd. , Gyunyu Sekken, and Kintestu Department Store.
