About Time Book Držač za knjige

Time Book je držač za knjige dizajniran za upotrebu na radnom stolu ili polici za knjige. Svaki držač za knjige izrađen je od ručno poliranog bloka kristalnog stakla. Posebna tinta nanesena je sitoštampom na površinu i pečena na visokoj temperaturi. Visoka gustoća kristalnog stakla daje držaču za knjige stabilnost u upotrebi. Dizajn je minimalistički u funkciji, formi i materijalu, te podsjeća na skulpturu u obliku knjige. Forma jasno predstavlja funkciju. Štampani tekst koristi tipografiju Quinsay Parto. Slova MMXIX na hrptu su rimski brojevi za 2019. godinu.
