The Japanese Design for Peace exhibition 'Retired Weapons' is taking place in Milan this year, the first time it's participated in an event outside of Japan.
The project produced by Yuji Tokuda and Junya Ishikawa combines incisive graphic design with a straight message of peace through a variety of tools including it's distinctive and iconic element: an inflatable, real-size tank. Seeds of flowers will be distributed during the exhibition, conceived by Japanese design expert Yoichi Nakamuta, as an invitation to happiness and dialogue.
