Slightly Acidic
Publication (Printed with Neon Ink)
✸ 2022 IPA Gold Award in Specialty Color
‘Acid’ is a kind of futuristic design aesthetics with visuals looking like metals eroded by chemicals. This book printed with neon pink ink is an attempt for the acidic aesthetic with insect humanoid drawings. Each packaging is uniquely made with paper stencil and UV paints.
Acid是一種設計風格,像是金屬被化學物質侵蝕而成的圖案,刺眼又具未來感。這本書仔借用擬人化的昆蟲,以螢光粉紅色印刷,淺嚐酸蝕美學。包裝袋Stencil全人手製作用,在UV燈的照射下會看到發光的塵粒。張張不同,反完美主義。
