About Time Book Liburu-euskarria

Time Book mahai edo apalategi batean erabiltzeko diseinatutako liburu-euskarria da. Liburu-euskarri bakoitza eskuz leundutako kristalezko beira-bloke batez eginda dago. Tinta berezia serigrafiaz inprimatzen da gainazalean eta tenperatura altuan ondu. Kristalezko beiraren dentsitate handiak egonkortasuna ematen dio liburu-euskarriari erabileran. Diseinua minimalista da funtzioan, forman eta materialean, eta liburu itxurako eskultura baten antza du. Formak funtzioa argi eta garbi erakusten du. Inprimatutako testuak Quinsay Parto letra-tipoa erabiltzen du. Bizkarreko MMXIX letrak 2019 urteari dagozkion zenbaki erromatarrak dira.

Urrezko Saria A' Design Award irabazi duen diseinu hau proiektu ikusgarri eta errespetatua da, artearen, zientziaren, diseinuaren eta teknologiaren mugak oso onuragarriro zabaltzen dituena. Time Book Liburu-euskarria desira-sentimendu biziak sortzen dituen, grina pizten duen, sormena bultzatzen duen eta liluratzen gaituen lana da.
