Mirrors have been used for thousands of years, originally made from polished stones or metals like bronze and copper. Early mirrors were convex or concave plates before flat mirrors emerged in the 15th century BCE made of polished stone. Through history, mirrors evolved in their materials from stone to metal to glass, and their frames became more ornate, ranging from simple wood to carved designs featuring flowers or classical motifs. Major developments included the introduction of mercury to create clearer glass mirrors in the 19th century and later the use of aluminium.

Glass is a hard substance, often brittle and typically transparent or translucent. Glass is seen around us every day, from windows, to light bulbs, to drinking cups and so on. It can come in different varieties, textures and hues. These are one of the few characteristics that have made glass one of the most admired and sought-after substance for Millennia. As a result of how commonplace glass is, one tends to overlook its history and the level of craftsmanship involved in its production. Manipulating glass is no easy feat, even by today’s modern standards. This is the reason why glass production in the ancient worlds was only practiced by a few and exceptionally gifted craftsmen and their works were revered by noblemen and kings

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
