Design an Icon for the Ages 征集背景 Nantou City's Background
南头古城自东晋咸和六年(公元331年)设置东官郡起,距今已有近1700年的历史,是历代岭南沿海地区的行政管理中心、海防要塞、海上交通和对外贸易的集散地。因此,南头古城也被誉为“粤东首郡,港澳源头”。
Nantou City, tracing its origins to the establishment of the Dongguan Commandery in 331 AD during the Eastern Jin Dynasty’s Xianhe era, stands as a living testament to nearly 1,700 years of continuous history. This remarkable site has served as the administrative capital of coastal Lingnan regions, a strategic coastal defense fortress, and a vital hub for maritime trade and foreign commerce. Thus, it is acclaimed as the First Commandery in Eastern Guangdong, and the Cultural Source of Hong Kong and Macao.
南头古城保护与利用项目自2019年正式启动,历经6年的更新改造,古城已蝶变成为湾区文化新地标。为彰显南头古城深厚文化底蕴,拓展古城文化内涵,打造古城文化IP,现面向全球开展南头古城形象标识征集活动。
The revitalization project of Nantou City began in 2019. After six years of comprehensive renewal and transformation, it has now transformed into a new cultural landmark in the Greater Bay Area. To showcase Nantou City's rich cultural heritage, deepen its cultural significance, and establish its cultural identity, Nantou Sub-district now launches a global open call for its official logo design. 01征集时间及评选流程
