These views of Biblion: Frankenstein, an iPad app from New York Public Library is showcased in the March/April 2013 issue of Communication Arts Interactive Annual 19.
The logo of Biblion is only on a few of the pages while a balance between imagery and type is achieved in the main content by either placing the image to one side of the text or above and in one case centered with text in both the upper right and lower left corners. One view choose not to use type but instead uses a apparently endless spiral of indistinct whose specific identity is left up to the user but whose context is the images from the various stories that are in Biblion: Frankenstein.
The same spiral is used to link this view with the last one that has the spiral minus the images but with writing in the corners. Through its images it is linked to the other views tying all the views together in a group unity that reveals the theme of a library full of stories.
The black background of the views gives Biblion: Frankenstein a elegant classical feeling which also goes with the choice of images in the various views.
