About 4N4 Design - Gla Gla 教育パズル
クルク島のための独特なクロアチアの土産品を制作する際、デザイナーたちは、西暦1100年代に遡るバシュカ石板に刻まれた古代グラゴール文字をプレイヤーに教えるパズルを考案した。パズルのピースは、古代ギリシャ時代からクルク島で栽培されてきたオリーブの木から作られている。グラグラは数千年の文化をゲームに凝縮し、ユーザーがクルク島のクロアチア史の断片を組み合わせ、あらゆる言語で新しい物語や言葉へと再構成することを可能にする。

- Research
- The characteristics of the olive tree as a very solid wood have been carefully selected for its durability, and its Christian symbolism connects the wooden puzzle with town of Krk and Island Krk heritage.
The waterproof MDF was chosen for its exceptional durability, but also for the visual impression of fibrous wood. - Inspiration
- The Tourist Board of the Croatian town of Krk awarded the Gla Gla label of the original town of Krk souvenir and is marked with the recognition A Gift From Krk.
A Gift From Krk is a kind of representation of the town, showing a reflection of the continuity of its artistic, cultural and historical heritage, and at the same time, presenting its tangible, intangible and natural heritage. - Project Duration
- Project started in January 2020 and finished in March 2020 in Zagreb, and was exhibited in Zagreb Design Week in August 2020 in Croatia.
- Operation Flow
- By opening the box, 25 Glagolitic letters cut from an olive tree are revealed, under which there are Latin letters for easier memory and connection of not only the form, but also the meaning. The outlines of the letters can be drawn on paper and thus form the first Glagolitic words.
