On December 16, the Beijing Winter Olympics ushered in a 50-day countdown. Since the first anniversary of the countdown to the Beijing Winter Olympics, the image landscape designs of the Winter Olympics such as torches, medals and uniforms have been released one after another.
From the torch design with the auspicious cloud pattern "bottoming" to the Winter Olympic medals with images derived from the ancient Chinese concentric circles and jade bi, a series of Winter Olympic image landscape designs contain a strong "Chinese aesthetics" culture.
Winter Olympic torch
Auspicious cloud pattern, paper cut
On February 4, on the first anniversary of the countdown to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, the design of the torch of the Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games was released to the public.
Beijing will become the first "city of two Olympic Games" in the history of the Olympic Games, and the overall appearance of the torch of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games echoes the form of the main torch tower at the opening ceremony of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The torch is "bottomed" with a xiangyun pattern, and gradually transitions from the xiangyun pattern from bottom to top to a paper-cut style snowflake pattern, rotating and rising, like a ribbon fluttering.
Beijing Winter Olympics torch appearance designer Li Jianye: "It is a very open shape, it is very inclusive, and it has another key word, at that time we have been talking about the "teaching method of nature", because you can see that the torch itself is shaped like a natural leaf, it is like a feeling of growth. It is completely different from many Winter Olympics and Summer Olympic torches, and previously it was inclined to industrial and modern. Chinese culture brings us the so-called "great beauty" in nature, and we integrate the "great beauty" in nature into the torch. ”
Winter Olympics Tinder Lights
Western Han Dynasty Changxin Palace lamp
On October 20, the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics Tinder arrived in Beijing.
On the same day, as the landscape of the torch relay of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, the torch relay sign, the tinder lamp, and the ceremonial tinder platform made their debut. Among them, the creativity of tinder lamp originated from the "first lamp in China" - the Western Han Dynasty Changxin Palace lamp, borrowing the meaning of "changxin" to express the pursuit and yearning for light and hope.
Li Jianye, exterior designer of the Beijing Winter Olympic Torch: "It is first of all a design feeling that is in line with the entire Winter Olympic torch, just like the ribbon fluttering the whole is rotating upwards, and the overall feeling is the same." When considering this design, I also hope to reflect Chinese culture more vividly. So the shape of this lamp is actually inspired by the "first lamp in China" - Changxin Palace lamp, a lamp used in the Western Han Court more than 2,000 years ago, its shape and proportion can be seen to be very simple, but also very elegant. ”
Winter Olympic medals
Ancient concentric circles of jade
On October 26, at the 100-day countdown to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, the medals for the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games were released.
The medals of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games are composed of a ring and a center, and the image is derived from the ancient Chinese concentric circle jade bi, with a total of five rings. The five rings are concentric and concentric, expressing the connotation of Chinese culture of "heaven and earth and people's hearts".
Hang Hai, professor of the School of Design of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and head of the medal design team, said: "We finally chose the concept of "five rings and one heart", on the one hand, it has the unity of the form of ancient jade bi, which has a continuation with the concept of jade in 2008, which can more show the concept of "city of the two Olympics". On the other hand, the "five rings of one heart" actually has an idea, hoping to convey a basic idea through such a form, and the people of the world can unite together under the inspiration of the Olympic spirit and share the joy of the Winter Olympics. ”
Winter Olympic uniforms
Chinese landscape painting, Great Wall ash
On October 27, the uniforms and equipment of the Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games were officially unveiled. Uniforms and equipment for the Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games will be worn by staff, technical officials and volunteers.
It is reported that the exterior design of the uniform equipment of the Winter Olympics is inspired by the traditional Chinese landscape paintings and the snow-capped mountains of the core graphics of the Winter Olympics.
He Yang, the main creator of uniform equipment design for the Winter Olympics and a professor at the Beijing Institute of Fashion: "The clothes made using the method of landscape will symbolize the broad mind of our staff, volunteers and participants, and at the same time show the natural landscape of beijing's winter events and this humanistic landscape, which is the image conveyed by Chinese painting." There is a Great Wall gray in the standard color, so there is an image of ink, and this dress may be more stable and elegant. ”
Fifty days later, the Beijing Winter Olympics will kick off
Looking forward to more Chinese style display!
