About Defy Grāmatas vāka dizains

Grāmatas teksts: Defy ir grāmatas vāka dizains, kas veidots izdevumam par anarhismu. Galvenais vizuālais elements ir brilles, kas pārklātas ar punktveida laku, lai piešķirtu tekstūrai reālistiskāku izskatu. Vāks un vidusjoslas lente attēlo ikdienā sastopamus priekšmetus, kurus Taivānā bieži izmanto barikāžu būvēšanai, piemēram, ceļu konusus, mucas un solus. Kā apdrukas materiāls izmantots industriālais iepakojuma papīrs. Sarkanās, melnās un baltās krāsu kombinācija simbolizē sacelšanos un revolūciju. Šie pazīstamie priekšmeti saista abstraktu ideju ar ikdienas dzīvi.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The glasses as a main visual hint, are coated with spot varnish to make the texture more realistic. Various typical objects which are often being used to build barricades are showed on the cover and the belly band. Designer tends to recall the shared memories of Taiwanese readers by these familiar objects. Also industrial packaging paper is used for printing material. The color scheme of the cover is red, black and white, in order to create a sense of the Left-wing, rebellion, and revolution. Readers can associate to Anarchism by both visual and tactile perceptions.
Dimensions & Packaging: Industrial packaging paper: kraft paper and Coated paper on each side

Design Challenge: It is a challenge for designer while attempting to intepret the abstract concept of Anarchism for Taiwanese readers, so daily objects are being used allowing readears to easily associate to their experiences.
Inspiration: People are standing up against existing rules, severe laws through provoking small-scale boycotts with typical objects which can be found on the streets of Taiwan. They are often being used to build barricades. For examples like Traffic cone with tire on top, barrels, bench, or a self-made “No Parking” stand. People use these to create a private boundary in a shared place. These behaviors can be taking as actions of Anarchism. The glasses on the other hand, is a symbol of getting a new vewpoint of Anarchism.
Project Duration: The designing project started and finished in April 2021 in Tainan, Taiwan, and was published in Taiwan on 1st of April, 2021.
Operation Flow: The graphic design is to create a shared life experience towards Anarchism, but also to try interpreting a perspective of Taiwanese folk culture.
