The whole concept is based on a very simple fact we did not want to make another publication with a photo of the faculty or university on its cover. The Faculty of Arts offers the most human, most intelectual and yet most abstract fields of study. According to the fact it was established in 1921, it seemed to be ideal to take some of the typical features and elements of that period and present them in a slightly novelty way. That means abstract aesthetics, basic colors, simple forms and a enough space for reader’s imagination. Abstract symbols used inside the book do not only have a decorative function, but their presence at the fore-edge also works as a simple navigation among the chapters. Book layout offers many advanced typography features from which every reader can profit—true small-caps, true indexes, both proportional and tabular figures and also great czech typefaces.
