About Defy Bokomslagsdesign

Defy er en bokomslagsdesign laget for en utgitt tittel om anarkisme. Et par briller utgjør hovedmotivet og er belagt med partiell lakk for å gi teksturen et mer realistisk uttrykk. Omslaget og bukbindet viser gjenstander som folk i Taiwan ofte bruker til å bygge veisperringer, som trafikkjegler, tønner og benker. Industriell emballasjepapir er brukt som trykkmateriale. Fargeskjemaet i rødt, svart og hvitt antyder opprør og revolusjon. De gjenkjennelige gjenstandene knytter en abstrakt idé til dagliglivet.

Press Kit

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.

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.
