| DESIGN NAME: INK-Chinese Contemporary Ink PRIMARY FUNCTION: Catalog Design INSPIRATION: The inspiration came from the philosophy of Chinese ink painting. The balance between negative and positive spaces is our focus. We try to use black and white as the visual language to transfer the spirit of the Chinese ink painting. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This Catalog was published on the occasion of the exhibition "INK", an event about contemporary Chinese ink painting. Its design is an attempt to translate the aesthetic of the exhibits into book form.

The multifaceted design is continued in the text flow, image layout and structure of the book.
