THE LIBRARY OF BABEL — Jorge Luiz Borges
Reading a book is both a physical and a mental activity. It is like walking through a house, following the layout of the rooms with your body and mind: the movement from one room to another, or from one part of the book to another, constitutes an experiential narrative that is physical and conscious at the same time.
This editorial design project presents my interpretation of the argentinian writer’s short story which narrates in a contemplative style the story of an infinite and complex library that is also a metaphor for the universe.
I've taken spatial approach to he brief that attempts to represent the mystic and magical place the library is said to be by combining complex wireframe graphics with experimental digital photography and mettalic materials.
