LOGO Design Concept 

The design is based on the motif of the character “light” in kanji.

the black part represents the cross of the sparkling light and the cross where people come and go, and white partrepresents the light that is actually invisible, but when the f-number (aperture) of the circular aperture is reduced when taking a photograph, it is one of the techniques that can be done by blurring the light called a point light source, commonly known as “ball bokeh of light”.

A one-shot learning logo that intertwines the scenery of the light-up venue with text. This is the so-called “aha experience.” When you understand that the circle dot of “light” is the kanji character “light”, your emotions rise in your brain, and you feel a sense of discomfort in the modeling and it remains in your memory.

This “ball of light” creates a gorgeous and fantastic nightscape in Hakata Old Town.
