TROPHIES<br />

The archipelago of <strong>Gothenburg</strong><br />

The archipelago of <strong>Gothenburg</strong> stretches along<br />

our coast like a string of pearls. This unique world<br />

of islands is an essential part of <strong>Gothenburg</strong>.<br />

The visual look of sound waves<br />

Choir song is at its core sound. Sound in its digital<br />

form can be waves in a sound editing program.<br />

If you look closely at that wave you can almost<br />

see the horizon and islands, which inspired the<br />

idea. The sound wave can be interpreted as ocean<br />

and islands. It is further enhanced with seagulls<br />

in the fictive sky. This design works really well<br />

with the values of <strong>Gothenburg</strong> as well as the<br />

connection to singing, sound and music.
