Taking book design to a completely new level, graphic designer Marton Borzak creates a unique and futuristic design for the 'P.S. - Secrets of the Barguzin Skeleton' book.
Using UV ink that is only visible under UV light for the commentary by the authors and for the annotations of the illustrations, the book is designed in a way to reinforce the theme of the book and its dark and twisted secrets.
The Hungarian designer that is currently New York-based wanted the book to be darkly whimsical and take on the character of the stories with it it.
"The binding is designed in a way that the attached UV-lamp could fit inside the book, but at the same time it can be removed and used to explore hidden messages," says Borzak about his book design.
