About Time Book Sipò liv

Time Book se yon sipò liv ki fèt pou itilize sou yon biwo oswa sou yon etajè liv. Chak sipò liv fèt ak yon blòk vè kristal ki poli alamen. Yo enprime yon lank espesyal sou sifas la ak teknik serigrafi epi yo kwit li nan tanperati ki wo. Dansite wo vè kristal la bay sipò liv la estabilite pandan itilizasyon. Konsepsyon an minimal nan fonksyon, fòm ak materyèl, epi li sanble ak yon eskilti ki gen fòm yon liv. Fòm nan prezante fonksyon an klèman. Tèks ki enprime a itilize polis karaktè Quinsay Parto. Lèt MMXIX ki sou do liv la se chif women pou ane 2019.
