About Architectural Traces 도서

건축적 흔적(Architectural Traces)은 달마티아 출신 건축가의 작업을 다룬 책이다. 표지는 경사진 측면을 가지고 있어 멀리서 보면 전형적인 로마식 기와로 덮인 지붕처럼 보인다. 가까이서 보면 이 패턴은 사실 그 건축가의 척추를 촬영한 실제 자기공명영상(MRI) 스캔 이미지임이 드러난다. 이러한 착시 효과는 사람들이 감탄하는 건축물 뒤에 숨겨진 고통스러운 현실을 암시한다. 이 책은 270mm×270mm×35mm 크기로 제작되었으며, 오프셋 용지에 인쇄되고 하드 스티치 제본 방식을 사용했으며 별도의 외피는 없다. 사용 시 표지는 비스듬히 열린 상태를 유지한다.

Unique Properties
Looking from a distance at the sloping side of the cover, we recognize a roof with typical Dalmatian Roman tiles. It is created by the optical illusion of images of the actual Magnetic resonance of the architect's spine, which can be seen when we approach the book. They reveal the hidden and painful reality of a responsible Dalmatian architect, the one behind the buildings we admire.
Dimensions & Packaging
Dimensions are 270 mm x 270 mm x 35 mm

Production Technology
The format of the book was chosen as the one that corresponds to the difference in proportions and quality content of the publication, not too large for the convenience of leafing. It is printed on quality offset paper, hard, stitched binding without the outer paper wrapper.
Design Challenge
The challenge was how to show the life of an architect who is not easy. To show it true in a society that has prejudices against responsible architects and that perceives architecture in the wrong way. Show that not all architects are the same.
Research
Almost a lifelong experience, living in the same household with an architect, talking many times about architecture, I witnessed many successes but also injustice, misunderstanding, pressure, threats, sleepless nights, and consequently health problems.
Inspiration
The Dalmatian architecture disappears under the trends. The authors of the book, called Architectural Traces, describe the works of a renowned Dalmatian architect Jerko Rosin, as modest, considerate, rational, responsible for the area, without unnecessary trendy views. And on the spine that has not bent in front of insatiable investors, which are consistency, stress, and years spent in a chair, I notice some different architectural, more painful, traces.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2019 in Split and finished in January 2020 in Split, and was exhibited in Hotel Park congress hall in January 2020.
Operation Flow
The book is not designed flat. Although it communicates even when closed, it comes to full expression during use, when opening the book, when the cover comes into its open oblique position.
