About Defy Design de couverture de livre
Defy est un design de couverture réalisé pour un ouvrage publié sur l'anarchisme. Une paire de lunettes constitue l'élément visuel principal et se voit rehaussée d'un vernis sélectif afin de rendre la texture plus réaliste. La couverture et la bande-annonce présentent des objets courants que les habitants de Taïwan utilisent fréquemment pour ériger des barricades, tels que des cônes de signalisation, des barils et des bancs. Du papier d'emballage industriel a été employé comme support d'impression. La palette chromatique de rouge, de noir et de blanc évoque la rébellion et la révolution. Ces objets familiers relient une idée abstraite à la vie quotidienne.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- The glasses as a main visual hint, are coated with spot varnish to make the texture more realistic. Various typical objects which are often being used to build barricades are showed on the cover and the belly band. Designer tends to recall the shared memories of Taiwanese readers by these familiar objects. Also industrial packaging paper is used for printing material. The color scheme of the cover is red, black and white, in order to create a sense of the Left-wing, rebellion, and revolution. Readers can associate to Anarchism by both visual and tactile perceptions.

Industrial packaging paper for printing - Design Challenge
- It is a challenge for designer while attempting to intepret the abstract concept of Anarchism for Taiwanese readers, so daily objects are being used allowing readears to easily associate to their experiences.
- Inspiration
- People are standing up against existing rules, severe laws through provoking small-scale boycotts with typical objects which can be found on the streets of Taiwan. They are often being used to build barricades. For examples like Traffic cone with tire on top, barrels, bench, or a self-made “No Parking” stand. People use these to create a private boundary in a shared place. These behaviors can be taking as actions of Anarchism. The glasses on the other hand, is a symbol of getting a new vewpoint of Anarchism.
- Project Duration
- The designing project started and finished in April 2021 in Tainan, Taiwan, and was published in Taiwan on 1st of April, 2021.
- Operation Flow
- The graphic design is to create a shared life experience towards Anarchism, but also to try interpreting a perspective of Taiwanese folk culture.
