CONCEPT:
(TITLE) NON-PLACE is based on the theory of non-places, coined by the French anthropologist Marc Augé. The idea behind the book was that places and non-places exist—there isn’t a space that can be just a “place” or a “non-place.” The book is divided into two sections: the “physical non-place” and the “digital non-place,” showing places and non-places coexisting in the physical and digital space. Typefaces, colors, and other design decisions were deliberately made to reflect the loss of identity in a non-place.
