Leapy Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture, CEO: Satoshi Kawaguchi, hereinafter: the Company) has produced the migration and settlement portal site 'Living clearly in Seki' commissioned by Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, following a proposal review.
This site is structured around Seki City's unique migration concept, 'Living clearly in Seki,' centering on three categories: 'Living in Seki,' 'Working in Seki,' and 'Residing in Seki.' It comprehensively covers practical information sought by potential migrants, ranging from daily peace of mind such as living environment, childcare support, and medical systems, to diverse job options including the cutlery industry, practical housing information like the vacant house information bank and housing subsidies, as well as migration support systems and interviews with senior migrants. Furthermore, the top page displays copy such as 'Living with clear time,' 'Working with a clear mind,' and 'Residing with clear scenery,' overlapping the 'sharpened' image cultivated as a city of cutlery with the 'clear' value symbolized by clear streams and nature, designed to intuitively convey the appeal of a new life where both mind and body are arranged.
Background and Purpose of Renewal
Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, is globally known as a cutlery production area, while also being a town where a natural environment surrounded by rich clear streams and mountains, and historical culture such as Enku Buddhas and cormorant fishing, breathe. The city's strength lies in its environment that balances urban convenience with the ease of rural living, and it has been transmitting information to prospective migrants through the Seki City migration and settlement portal site. This time, our company, selected as the site production manager through a proposed open call for proposal review, revamped the visual design and information structure. We strengthened the lead-ins to migration consultations while conveying the charm of Seki City more concretely.
'Living in Seki' Migrant Voices Migration Support
Thoughts put into the concept - Branding with the appeal of 'Clear' as an angle
Seki City is a cutlery town globally known as the 'City of Swords,' and is blessed with clear natural and cultural resources such as Monet's Pond, the forest of Kabusugi, Seki Zenkoji, and Oze Cormorant Fishing. This site connects these regional resources with the keyword 'Clear (Sumu)' and sets forth a new migration concept: 'Living clearly in Seki.' In line with the concept, it delivers messages such as 'Growing children freely in a clear environment' to the child-rearing generation, 'A work environment where you can concentrate in clear air' to remote workers, and 'An ideal home in a clear land' to those desiring to own a home. The tone and visuals of the entire site are also unified with 'Clear,' expressing the sharpened image of cutlery and the transparency of clear streams.
Pamphlet deployment linked with the Web to experience 'Clear living'
We also produced a pamphlet to be distributed at events and consultation counters simultaneously. The cover adopts visuals unified with the website, and the inside pages compactly summarize information in chapters such as 'What kind of place is Seki City,' 'Living in Seki,' 'Residing in Seki,' and 'Working in Seki.' With a layout conscious of magazines and lifestyle media, and a writing tone that is not overly stiff, we finished it in a design that even the child-rearing generation in their 30s can read comfortably.
'Living clearly in Seki' Pamphlet
Comment from the person in charge of the Seki City Planning and Public Relations Division
'We renewed the website to convey the life and appeal of Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, more clearly to people inside and outside the city. The site has become easier to use, for example, by adding a search function to the vacant house information bank. Also, since we produced a pamphlet along with the renewal, we can now accurately convey the necessary information on paper as well.'
Future Outlook - Towards further promotion of migration support and regional revitalization
A major strength of our company is that many of our employees have experienced migration via UIJ turns. We view migration not as a policy measure, but as a 'personal matter.' Up to now, we have been involved in numerous projects for local governments and government agencies nationwide, including migration/settlement portal sites, tourism, culture, and regional promotion, verbalizing and visualizing the unique value of each land while facing the charms and challenges of each region. In this initiative for Seki City as well, we closely follow the realistic decision-making process of potential migrants, pursuing a 'design that leads to action' that goes beyond mere information provision by conveying 'life,' 'work,' and 'housing' integrally. Going forward, utilizing our migrant perspective and past knowledge, our company will continue to contribute to communicating the appeal of regions and municipalities nationwide and sustainable regional development.
