Decotora

At first, it may appear to be something out of a fiction movie. Many people in Japan are already a fan or familiar with the Decotora (Decorated Truck).

A sense of depth

Jas Bhachu developed new cover designs for Roland Barthes that are quite clever. The objective was to redesign four book covers; Music - Text, Mythologies and Empire of Signs. Jas used Coloured OHP, which is a colored transparent film, for the cover. When the cover is lifted a new visual is discovered.
