The Design Center is working toward the objective of creating new values by better understanding Fujifilm's advanced technologies, broadening our potential through flexible thinking, and identifying connections to customer needs. Through publicizing our work which visualizes the true nature of technologies developed in projects conducted together with individual research laboratories and divisions, we strive to contribute to Fujifilm's growth by exploring new roles of design, different from design for product commercialization.
Anodic oxidation of aluminum sheets using nanophotonics technologies create s that change according to viewing angle. Aluminum sheets processed into the shape of the wings of a morpho butterfly have been created to discover the possibilities of science and technology through comparison with the colors of the natural world.
Developed as an anti-counterfeit label, FORGE GUARD is a product that takes advantage of Fujifilm's research and development of highly functional materials. In the hope that this technology could be applied in other fields as well, this product was exhibited at Japan's largest design event, 100% Design Tokyo 2009, in the form of the Forge Jungle artwork to let visitors search for hidden animals in the jungle.
