Big Book Project: Cautionary Tales for Children
The big book project was a group project that required us to design our own interpretation of Hilaire Belloc’s book ‘Cautionary Tales for Children’. My group’s intepretation of the book was to turn it into a coffee-table book for adults that are passionate about art and design. Our book adopts an eccentric, radical punk inspired aesthetic to reflect the grim reality of each poem’s morals whilst also keeping it fun and entertaining. I was in charge of the type and layout for the book and the following slides will showcase some of the spreads that I did (apart from the front cover and content pages).
My work for the group project displays handrawn type to digital text that adds a dynamic feel to the page. I took into consideration the illustrations that went along with the page as well as the meaning behind the text that was being used.
