Beginnings
My way to start a meal
Art direction and graphic design for the first cookbook by SF celebrity chef Chris Cosentino. With hand-rendered sketches and personal stories throughout, the author’s unique personality is reflected in the type and images, and comes through on the page as well as on the textured case. I directed the photo shot with natural light on location in Cosentino’s San Francisco restaurant, Incanto. Original sketches by the author; photographs by New York–based Michael Harlan Turkell.
