別人家的護照 挪威極光護照美如畫

Norway's stunning new passport design has just been unveiled and it has mastered the art of Scandinavian minimalism.

挪威日前公佈了設計風格抽象簡潔的、令人耳目一新的新版護照。

Created by Neue Design Studio, the packaging features clean lines, a red embossed cover, and even secret images of the Northern Lights.

新版護照由Neue工作室設計，護照封面簡潔時尚，翻開內頁可見挪威的自然風光。

When placed under a UV lamp, the gorgeous landscape lights up before your eyes.

如果放在紫外線下，呈現出的則是挪威自然風光的美麗夜景，甚至還能看到“極光”。

The passport will have a red cover, unless you are a diplomat, in which case, you will receive a blue version. Immigrants will be issued a pale gray design.

護照封面的顏色除了代表普通護照的紅色外，還有外交官護照的藍色以及移民護照的專用的灰白色。

The new designs were an entry in the National Police Directorate's competition to 'find a unique concept with excellent design qualities and a theme that is widely accepted.'

新版護照的設計方案是從挪威國家警察總署舉辦的設計大賽的參賽作品中選出的，該大賽舉辦的目的就是爲了尋找設計優秀、認可度高的新概念設計。

The hope was also that the new design would increase security of Norwegian passports, ID cards, and other travel documents.

同時，大賽也希望新設計能夠提高挪威護照、身份證件以及其他旅行證件的安全和防僞性能。

'Nature has always been an essential part of the Norwegian identity and tradition, as well as being a key fundament to our welfare,' said the design team.

在大賽中勝出的Neue設計團隊稱：“自然風光一直都是挪威的一個符號，是我們的傳統，也是我們的福利。”

'The landscape with its vast variation from the south to the north, is the starting point for the design concept.

“挪威的自然景色從南到北都有不同的風情，這也是我們本次設計概念的重要起點。”

'The basis for the winning entry is the concept of The Norwegian Landscape.'

“我們能在這次大賽中獲勝憑藉的就是挪威自然風景這個重要概念。”

Though the design will be slightly adjusted and tweaked on the basis of technical and safety considerations, the final result will be presented soon.

不過，出於技術和安全上的一些考慮，該版設計的護照還需要稍作更改，最終結果將會在近期公佈。

The jury, speaking of their decision to crown Neue Design Studio the winners, said: 'It illustrates the Norwegian identity and makes sure the passport will be viewed as a document of high value.'

本次大賽的評委會在提到Neue工作室的這款設計時稱：“該設計凸顯了挪威的獨特性，並使護照成爲了一種非常有價值的證件。”

'The design is attractive and stylish, the colours are subtle and the abstraction of the landscapes are exciting.

“它的設計時尚、吸引人，顏色溫和，圖案抽象有趣。”

'The jury appreciates the simplicity of the solution.'

“這種簡潔的風格得到了評委會的一片好評。”
