CALACA: The Three Deaths
Type 2
 

School project where we were asked to design a small book of our choice using three different grids. 
I chose an axial, a column, and a modular grid to showcase the colorful skulls used during the Mexican Day of the Dead. 
I engraved and laser cut the flap cover and I French folded its pages using a skull pattern on the inside. 
 
Calaca: The Three Deaths is the graphic design winner in the upcoming Creative Quarterly 37 magazine issue, out this winter.
