Project Description
In conjunction with More Than a Game, Mimio designed a separate concept for Top of Their Game at the Japanese American National Museum, which highlighted Japanese American athletes, including Wat Misaka, professional basketball player with the New York Knicks in 1947, Wimbledon champion Ann Kiyomura, and Olympic gold medalist Kristi Yamaguchi. Mimio designed wall murals incorporating images of objects and historical photos from these personal and eclectic stories.
