Development of public mailboxes
The Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications
The project is to make the system design of a next generation of the post for the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications (presently Japan Post Co., Ltd.) Tried to unify the function and the variation of the size, over the items of the post with wide variations, by systemizing the design. The present model is first such try in the long history of the ministry, and it has been making a standard design of the street-furniture in town to date.
Having succeeded to make the identity of the post in overall shape and color, made the form by structuring the curved and flat surface so as to impressing the new try. In trying to improve barrier-free nature, made the height of the posting slot accessible for children’s reach, wheelchair users and up to persons in general public. (Sekkei)
