The Design
About 4N4 Design - Gla Gla 교육용 퍼즐
크르크 섬을 대표하는 독특한 크로아티아 기념품을 제작하면서, 디자이너들은 바슈카 석판(1100년경)에 새겨진 고대 글라골 문자를 학습할 수 있는 퍼즐을 고안했습니다. 퍼즐 조각은 고대 그리스 시대부터 크르크 섬에서 재배된 올리브 나무로 제작되었습니다. Gla Gla는 수천 년의 문화를 게임 속에 응축하여, 사용자들이 크르크 섬의 크로아티아 역사 조각들을 맞추고 이를 어떤 언어로든 새로운 이야기와 단어로 재조합할 수 있도록 합니다.

- 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.
