OBJECTIVE Design an art book using alternative methods to illustrate different emotions.

 

GOALS I wanted the book to not only evoke different emotions but also the feel of the places I visited while studying in France. Not only using abstract images but also using typography. I chose to use poems of William Carlos Williams for this.

 

SOLUTION For this design I used a variety of different methods. First, I took a series of photographs ranging from textures of the area to buildings, people, and plants. Next, I used paints and other materials which I then scanned and overlaid with the photographs. For the typography, I wanted to use an existing typeface but still give it a handmade feel. I accomplished this by first printing the words, distressing the paper, and then scanning them back onto the computer.
