Eusapia- City & The Dead
Trude - Continuous City
They say that this has not just now begun to happen: actually it was the dead who built the upper Eusapia, in the image of their city. They say that in the twin cities there is no longer any way of knowing who is alive and who is dead.
“You can resume your flight whenever you like,” they said to me, “but you will arrive at another Trude, absolutely the same, detail by detail. The world is covered by a sole Trude which does not begin and does not end. Only the name of the airport changes.”

Final cover page For the cover page I build a model which is inspired by the building block excercise, because the design process is really like this game, you can develop and revise your project from different angles.
For whole drawing book High-contrast colors, bright blue, pink and orange, symbolise the whimsy and fancy in daily life which we can bring into design.
