To create a new layout of the publication was chosen Haruki Murakami novel "A Wild Sheep Chase" , art of a collection called "Trilogy of the Rat". The product is based on an ancient Chinese legend about the transmigration of the soul Sheep in person. Sheep completely replaces the individual, while people are given the unlimited possibilities and force aimed at establishing world domination anarchy.
While working on the project I analyzed the design style of Haruki Murakami book "A Wild Sheep Chase" publishing house "Amphora". Made clear conclusions, based on which a new layout of the publication. The uniqueness in the publication that contains custom stylized illustrations for more aesthetic, comprehensive, harmonious appearance for the modern market products. Also adds a unique contrast color cover and book block, painted trim pages, illustrated dvohrozvorotnyy title graphics for each half-titles.
Therefore, Ukrainian publishers and market products require innovation on the part of printing editions of foreign authors. Because at the moment is not appropriate translation of Haruki Murakami book "A Wild Sheep Chase" will create relevant Ukrainian transfer involving writers and translators.
Format Publication 60X84/16 offsets type printing for book's block - Munken Pure (Cream) 80g / m² for printing fly-leafs - Munken Pure (Cream) 130g / m². Such a format, density and color of the paper most successful approach for this type of publication. Typeface Gotham Pro 10 pt and 5 pt for footnotes. He not overload the page creates a simulated air.
The main artistic part of my project is a graphic illustrations made by using red pastels and graphics red pencils. They create an ideal atmosphere for the reader, full of symbolism and original ideas. From the beginning of the book illustrations transformed from a line in a spot that allows the publication sense of life and continuous contact with the world of book reader and protagonist.
For creation of such a plan is necessary to understand the symbols of Japan, the idea of story and willing to create a new publication, which can compete with foreign publishers, and influence the reader only with some images. I think the artistic and technical design and printing Haruki Murakami edition of the book "A Wild Sheep Chase" is strong evidence that, and aim to create a new and unique layout achieved.
