ART OF WAR / BOOK REDESIGN
Brief
The task was to redesign the book "The Art of War". While it hails from a distant era, “The Art of War” transcends the boundaries of time. Its principles have proven themselves to be timeless and versatile, extending their influence far beyond the realm of warfare. These profound teachings find application in diverse arenas, including business, sports, and life in general.
Solution
In the grand theater of warfare, a soldier can be linked to nothing more than a solitary dot on the canvas of the battlefield. In isolation, a dot may appear insignificant, much like an individual soldier whose impact on the outcome of a battle can seem minimal. However, just as dots collectively form intricate images when skillfully arranged, soldiers, when organized and directed with precision, come together to create a force capable of achieving success on the battlefield.
Given “The Art of War” is a book of strategic insights, I found the concept of integrating a checker set to be fitting. This addition not only aligns with the book’s themes but also serves as a symbolic extension of my use of dots representing the individual soldiers within an army.
