About Josef Koudelka Gypsies ブックデザイン

世界的に有名な写真家であるジョセフクデルカは、世界中の多くの国で写真展を開催しています。久々にジプシーをテーマにしたクデルカ展がようやく韓国で開催され、彼の写真集が作られました。韓国での初の展覧会だったので、作者から韓国を感じられるように本を作りたいという要望がありました。ハングルと韓屋は韓国を表す韓国の文字と建築です。テキストは心を指し、建築はフォームを意味します。これら二つの要素に触発され、韓国の特徴を表現する方法をデザインしたかった。

Production Technology
The windows of Korean traditional houses are made of paper, not glass, so the lights are beautifully reflected at night. In order to apply this to the book, he used a paper similar to Changhoji to express the impression that a feeling of impression. (Changhoji is traditional Korean paper for doors) Also, bookbinding was done using gauze, and the front and back cover of the book had a thick cloth attached to the board. Hot foil stamping processing twice on cover, spine and back cover.
Design Challenge
The choice of materials was important in order to create a book that can express Korea's feelings.
Through the selection and expression technique of book cover and page, he were able to complete a design expressing a specific area (country).
Research
There are many ways to make a design result feel a specific area (country). Hints can be found in Hangeul, a character language in Korea, and Hanok, a traditional house. He was worried about how to apply it. We tried to solve Hangeul with the cover and Hanok with the book. Hangeul was actively applied to the cover. In order to express the gleaming hanok at night, the paper on which the text was printed was intentionally made of translucent paper so that the back was visible.
Inspiration
Hangeul and Hanok are Korean letters and architecture that represent Korea. Text refers to the mind and architecture means the form. Inspired by these two elements, he wanted to design a way to express Korean characteristics.
Project Duration
This project began in Seoul, South Korea in March of 2016 and ended in January 2017. The sale of books has been started in South Korea since January 2017.
