The Design
About 4N4 Design - Gla Gla Образовательный пазл
Создавая по-настоящему хорватский сувенир для острова Крк, дизайнеры придумали пазл, обучающий игроков древней глаголице в том виде, в каком она представлена на Башчанской плите (датируемой 1100 годом нашей эры). Элементы пазла изготовлены из оливковых деревьев, растущих на острове Крк со времён Древней Греции. Gla Gla заключает тысячи лет культуры в игру, позволяющую пользователям складывать фрагменты хорватской истории острова Крк и заново комбинировать их в новые истории и слова на любом языке.

- 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.
