Kurikawa Automotive's 60th Anniversary Logo Collaboration
Kurikawa Automotive Co., based in the Tokyo, Chiba, and Kanagawa regions, is making strides in sustainable transportation by providing eco-friendly vehicles and promoting recycling. As part of their ongoing commitment to community involvement, the company has launched a collaborative project with Kanto Daiichi High School, marking the third iteration of this initiative that bridges the gap between local businesses and high school students.
A Meaningful Collaboration
In preparation for their 60th anniversary in 2026, Kurikawa Automotive entrusted students from Kanto Daiichi High School with creating a commemorative logo. This collaborative effort seeks to immerse students in local industry and highlight the appeal of regional enterprises. The chosen designs reflect the essence of local craftsmanship, incorporating elements such as factory environments, trucks, environmental consciousness, and aspirations for the future, all from the unique perspective of young creators.
Upon evaluating the submissions, the company awarded ten students: one for the Chairman’s award, one for the President’s award, and eight honorable mentions. Each logo tells a story, capturing the vibrancy and innovation of the automotive industry as perceived through the eyes of high school students.
Award-Winning Designs
The awarded designs not only showcase artistic talent but also embody the spirit of community and sustainability that Kurikawa Automotive stands for. The logos will be prominently displayed in upcoming company activities, ranging from internal communications to online platforms. This approach signifies Kurikawa's intention to celebrate their 60th anniversary hand-in-hand with the youth of the community, bridging tradition with future aspirations.
A Message from the President
Kurikawa’s President, Tomohiro Kurikawa, expressed the importance of these projects, stating,
“We aim for high school students to feel a sense of closeness with local businesses and to connect the 60 years of legacy with future generations. This initiative allows our employees to reflect on their roles within the community through the students' impressive work.”
The Road Ahead
Looking to the future, Kurikawa Automotive is committed to continuing their partnership with Kanto Daiichi High School, as well as exploring further collaborative possibilities with other local entities. The company envisions a vibrant ecosystem that connects young talent with regional employers, fostering awareness of local business value and significance.
