Hints can be found in Hangeul, a character language in Korea, and Hanok, a traditional house. He was worried about how to apply it. We tried to solve Hangeul with the cover and Hanok with the book. Hangeul was actively applied to the cover. In order to express the gleaming hanok at night, the paper on which the text was printed was intentionally made of translucent paper so that the back was visible. CHALLENGE: The choice of materials was important in order to create a book that can express Korea's feelings. Through the selection and expression technique of book cover and page, he were able to complete a design expressing a specific area (country).
