Concept
The brush-style lettering is designed so that it reads “Metal (金属)” when viewed normally, and “Creation (創造)” when rotated 180 degrees.
As a symbol of the Institute’s 110th anniversary, the design combines “Metal,” representing the roots and tradition of IMR, with “Creation,” representing innovation and the future. The logo expresses the coexistence of IMR’s history and its forward-looking spirit.
