About Time Book Penyangga Buku
Time Book ialah penyangga buku yang direka untuk kegunaan di atas meja atau rak buku. Setiap penyangga buku diperbuat daripada blok kaca kristal yang digilap dengan tangan. Dakwat khas dicetak secara saring pada permukaannya dan diawet pada suhu tinggi. Ketumpatan tinggi kaca kristal memberikan kestabilan kepada penyangga buku semasa digunakan. Reka bentuknya bersifat minimal dari segi fungsi, bentuk dan bahan, serta menyerupai arca berbentuk buku. Bentuknya mempersembahkan fungsinya dengan jelas. Teks yang dicetak menggunakan muka taip Quinsay Parto. Huruf MMXIX pada tulang belakang buku ialah angka Roman bagi tahun 2019.
