About Pool Naslovnica knjige

Pool je interaktivna naslovnica knjige stvorena za znanstvenu publikaciju. Dizajn na nov način tumači oblik algi kroz kineske znakove, a brojni oblici algi raspoređeni su po cijeloj naslovnici kako bi se čitatelji odmah povezali s temom. Skice raznih vrsta algi obrađene su točkastim lakom, čime se stvara vodeni odsjaj i realistična tekstura. Skice se protežu preko cijele naslovnice tvoreći prizor ribnjaka punog algi. Neonski žuti i zelenkasti tonovi prikazuju raznolikost algi. Mali kviz povezivanja na unutarnjoj strani naslovnice omogućuje čitateljima da nauče nazive algi.
