Archive
The pictures I collected are arranged into photographs of books as a border. And thus, this is a book of books of books. Book to me, IS an archive. It is a container. Therefore I do not want to change it’s fact. I do not want to change anything about it but using a book to archive books, I thought will be the best option.
Poster
Ohhh Posters! I made the type faces myself as I couldn’t find one that fits perfectly. And initially I had “remade” at the bottom that tis interactive but danne says no, it should move and change into another word. It took me really really long to think of a word to suit it. It was tough! It has to have 5 syllabus and the first can only have 2 strokes (i.e. F, A) the second has to be B, E or S and so forth. It;s only till the last day that I thought of =Image. (:
Series
Series is supposed to contain all the chapters in the Megg’s book of History but it shall be an unfinished series. I am really happy with the content page and I’ve categorised the chapters in colours. The idea is to give a gist of each chapter, well nobody really read word for word unless there’s an exam right?

Hi Jiaqi,
I like the posters alot, especially the interactive portion when you need to pull to to reveal a different text. It is a very clever thought, and it works well with your theme, very good solution indeed. But however, if you could extend the interactive portion to whole poster, it would be breath taking. (i know this is very hard and saying it is easy).
I think the series will work better if people would have a prior look at the real book, so it would have a parodied effect. This information graphics style of concision information captures the essence of each chapter, reminds me of a TED talk :Ursus Wehrli: Tidying up art ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57eeP31s-Rs)
