Project 06
Meaning Is Always Relative: Translating Ornament and Crime [Booklet]

A booklet providing three translations of Adolf Loos’s Ornament and Crime. The upper section of this publication contains an English version of the essay. The English text is then translated into Chinese, which is situated in the middle of the page and split into two columns. The bicolumns allow for the different translations to line up relatively in content. The Chinese text is lastly translated back to English and placed at the bottom. This project highlights how slight discrepancies can develop and change the meaning of a text when it is translated multiple times.
