Many leading concepts of book cover design were introduced in the book and this book had an eye-opening influence on the younger generation of Chinese designers since then.

Łona and Webber present their second single: ‘#nikiforszczecinski’ – a tribute to street art in all its forms. The song tells the story of a street artist from Szczecin who arranged his works from newspaper clippings, plants, candles, bricks and plush rats. The window sill and the gate of the tenement building in which he lived served as his very own exhibition space. The creator of this video – Lump – is one of the most recognisable street art artists in Poland.
