Slipcase Design

Flowing sword strokes rendered in red foil,
bullet marks engraved with blind embossing—
a dramatic interplay of red foil and debossing.

The two symbolic motifs—sword and gun—were conceived by the author himself.
Not only the foil, but the slipcase material also reflects light, shimmering like a star-filled sky.

Book Design

Both the upper and lower volumes feature generous use of two types of foil.
When the two books are placed together, the title emerges across the spines.

All three edges of each book are sprayed in gold and silver, respectively.
Every copy is finished by hand, one by one, by skilled artisans.
