“This book, curated by Professor Jenny Lin, shares images showing the identity crisis and friction in China, depicting its traditional world and its highly technological, Western-influenced modern one. Based on traditional Chinese books, the design combines Western and Chinese text with small black-and-white images. For a vertical look, the English text was rotated 90 degrees; the book reads from back to front in Chinese and from front to back in English. It is both perfect bound and Chinese bound—or hand-stitched—and also features French folds perforated near the spine that, when ripped open, reveal big full-color images.” Typefaces: Akkurat Bold, Akkurat Regular, Heiti TC Medium.
