519years of Joseon Dynasty Royal family

This is my graduation exhibition work in 2010 and based on the information graphic design.

It contains Historical information of king's of Korea's last Dyansty (called Joseon).
I choose circle image, because in Joseon, circle means the sky, and it also means king(or emperor).
I divided the circle for 27 kings. 27lines means each king. and the white point's(or the green circle's position) means each king's family relations. It means if the circles are on the same big white line circle, they are in sibling.
and the size of green circle means period of each king's emperorship.

I make Korean typeface for this work and I made pattern of each king based on my typeface called Joseon.

This type is derived from stroke of traditional Korean text.

and the color of this work drived from the color called 'Danchung'.
Danchung is Korea's traditional multicolored paintwork on wooden buildings.

and the main poster is printed on the fabric.
