FMP - Golden Section (Poster Book and Design)

This book was created as a companion to the original research book and the Golden Section poster. Much like the poster, it displays each of the designer's works and uses trace overlays to highlight possbilites of the Golden Section existing within these posters.
 
At the beginning of the book is an introductionary chapter explaining the theory behind the project, the experiment and how this has been undertaken. Data of each designer is depicted in a infographic style. The book is then split into sections, one section for each designer, each of these having their own brief introduction and basic information. 
 
The size of the book, the page layout, the text size, and the binding have all been calcuated to conform to the Golden Section.
