About Pool Primarna funkcija: Naslovnica knjige

Besedilo knjige: Pool je interaktivna naslovnica knjige, ustvarjena za znanstveno publikacijo. Oblikovanje na novo interpretira obliko alg skozi kitajske pismenke, pri čemer je po naslovnici razporejenih veliko oblik alg, tako da se bralci s temo takoj povežejo. Risbice različnih vrst alg so prevlečene s točkovnim lakom, kar ustvarja vodni odsev in realistično teksturo. Risbice se razširijo čez celotno naslovnico in tvorijo podobo ribnika, polnega alg. Neonsko rumeni in zelenkasti toni prikazujejo raznolikost alg. Majhen kviz ujemanja na notranji strani naslovnice bralcem omogoča, da se naučijo imen alg.
