Samsung Design, Drawing Closer to You

Typographic Posters for Hangul Day
To commemorate Hangul Day, on October 9th, we asked three contemporary designers to
interpret the beauty of Hangul in a special project. Using the newly introduced
SamsungOne font based on the design values we share here at Samsung Electronics,
we hope this will be an opportunity to reflect upon the beauty and innovation of this unique writing system.

Two conflicting values come together to form Samsung Electronic’s
design values, likewise we overlapped all the letters at the same focal
point thereby conceptually showing this unity of ideas but also
showing the formal beauty of Hangul.

slight emphasis on culture and art. Deeply based in traditional print, the studio seeks to
find connections with other mediums and outlets.

MR. JONES ASSOCIATION
Dots into lines, lines into planes, a simple trichotomy was the
driving concept for this typographic poster. Ultimately conveying
the idea that Samsung Electronics builds their products from the
ground up with the users.

SPARKS EDITION
Emphasizing balance and unity for us meant that the design values
of Samsung Electronics could be expressed with physics. In this
case the delicate balance of a hanging mobile was the motif for
this typographic placement.

Sparks Edition is sculptor Junoh Jang, and communication designer Ah Jihe. The collaborative vibe
of analogue and digital is what drives this unique studio. In like manner, they also started an artist
group, Spectrum Objects with other fellow artists to see how far the envelope can be pushed.

These three posters have not only put the new SamsungOne font to work but given us opportunity to think
upon the beauty of Hangul and the meaning of design. We hope to continue these unique channels of
communication as we seek to draw closer to you, the user.
