The Design

About Chadao Книга

Материалы обложки и цвета в твердом переплете используются для четкого представления типичных цветов чая пуэр. Дизайн и макет шрифта должным образом оставлены пустыми, а общий макет полон изменений. Современный язык дизайна используется для объяснения очарования китайского чая пуэр, а дизайн главы прост и понятен. Картинки и содержание хорошо подобраны и интересны. Графика и текст представлены гармонично и правильно.
