The starting point of the design are the japanese characters, kanji, in wooden blocks created by the Japanese graphic design duo, Tsukada & Hidechika, who are the founders of Dainippon Type Organization.
The wooden blocks can be re-organized to form other characters, types, words, pictures... and probably a lot more.
Maybe this fun approach can, finally, teach me kanji? For those who don't know, my ancestors decided to migrate to the freezing cold Denmark. So here I am.
There is a nice article about the duo in PingMag - an excellent Tokyo based design blog that unfortunately decided on going on an extended hiatus.
