About The Zodiac Bókamerki

Bókatextinn: Zodiac er sett af bókamerkjum sem byggist á dýrunum tólf í kínversku stjörnuspekinni. Hvert bókamerki er mótað þannig að dýrið virðist ganga inni í bókinni. Bókamerkin eru unnin úr hástyrktu ryðfríu stáli, gullhúðuð með 18 karata gulli og fullunnin með CNC-greftri með nákvæmni upp á 0,3 mm. Einfaldaðar línur sameina dýrin tólf en halda um leið í sérkenni hvers og eins. Umbúðirnar raða myndskreytingum stjörnumerkjanna í hringlaga mynstur sem táknar heild og fullkomnun. Gull og rautt eru notuð til að vekja tilfinningu fyrir gleði og blessun.

Design Challenge
The twelve animals are quiet different, like small mice , large cattle,horses and even fictional dragons. To design these animals with different morphological characteristics into a series and make the twelve be unified while keeping their characteristic is the biggest challenge . It has overcome with simplified lines and modern design techniques .
Inspiration
The zodiac, which comes from an ancient Chinese folk philosophy and has been used to this day, is made up of 12 different animals, each year represented by one animal in a 12-year cycle. The zodiac is also a simplified ecology of Chinese, twelve animals have very different personalities and live in harmony with each other.
Book, is the carrier of human knowledge, bookmark, is a small tool for reading, but also the embodiment of the reader's taste.
