Na An's "Memories of Mukden" is a collection of eight intricately designed books that showcase the rich history and culture of the city of Mukden, China.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Na An's "Memories of Mukden" is a remarkable collection of eight books that delve into the historical and cultural significance of Mukden, the birthplace of Chinese Qing culture. Each volume introduces a different place of interest in Mukden, encapsulating the city's profound cultural heritage. The books are bound using the folding form of ancient Chinese binding and are crafted from materials such as rice paper, copper, and brocade. The design of the books takes inspiration from the shape of a palace lantern, symbolizing the illumination of history and culture.
The books are not only visually stunning but also interactive, with each volume designed to be assembled together to form an octagonal palace lantern. This unique design allows for an engaging and immersive experience, adding to the artistic and collectible value of the books.
Na An's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the manufacturing processes, which include laser printing, metalworking, indentation, and folding loading. The layout design incorporates flat graphics, illustrations, and light gray tones, all created using Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.
Recognizing the exceptional creativity and technical prowess of "Memories of Mukden," Na An was honored with the Silver A' Design Award in 2021, a testament to the outstanding innovation and expertise demonstrated in this unique book design.
