This book was on display in the Vernon Street library. There's a cabinet full of similar examples. The idea for the books packaging is interesting. It's packaged like a piece of evidence from history or a Gestapo file. The small piece of wall being the sample. Its subtle but dark.

Brief:
Create a 100 page typographic flick book

It starts slowly with moon phases, ancient signs for the seasons, ticked off days and gets faster and faster introducing analogue time and digital time symbols.
Result:
Anja's flick book won a competition organized by Forum Typografie Kassel and was chosen as one of ten to be printed and published by Verlag Hermann Schmidt.
It won awards by the
Art Directors Club and
Type Directors Club New York.
