Expo ’70, 1967, Yūsaku Kamekura

In 1970, after the positive international response to the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, Japan hosted its first World Expo, attracting a record 64 million visitors. Kamekura’s winning design for the official poster for overseas use depicts his minimalist, geometric interpretation of the five petals of a cherry blossom – a culturally resonant symbol of Japan, prized for its ephemeral beauty

About a year ago, I learned of the existence of the Tower of the Sun, and I decided, right then and there, that I wanted to go to Japan and see her. And I did! The Tower of the Sun was designed by Tarō Okamoto for the 1970 Osaka Expo and is the symbol of Expo 70. The psychedelic "Tree of Life" interior has been (mostly) restored, and you can view it while climbing up the spiral staircase that runs along the inside of the tower.
