About Pool Bókakápa
Bókatexti: Pool er gagnvirk bókakápa hönnuð fyrir vísindarit. Hönnunin endurtúlkar form þörunga með kínverskum táknum, og mörg þörungaform eru sett fram á kápunni svo lesendur tengist viðfangsefninu strax. Krot af mismunandi þörungategundum eru húðuð með punktlakki, sem skapar vatnskennda endurspeglun og raunverulega áferð. Krotin ná yfir alla kápuna og mynda mynd af tjörn fullri af þörungum. Neonguli og grænleitir tónar sýna fjölbreytileika þörunganna. Lítil samsvörunargáta á innri kápunni gerir lesendum kleift að læra nöfn þörunganna.
