CREATE YOUR ADVETURE BOOK

  • Inna Nestorova
This project was my final major project, which is an inspirational book about travelling. The book is meant to help people develop their travel mentality in order to start creating adventures. It will help people to overcome their travel fears, build up mental strength so they could easily deal with difficulties on the road. The audience will be mainly people who want to indulge in adventure and to leave without a plan, but don’t have the courage to do it. In regards to the visual language I tried to express the feeling of the unknown, the discovering of new places, new people, new smells… I used the language of travel maps in a way to capture the essence of traveling, without using the maps as their main purpose – finding a destination. I crumpled different travel maps, photographed them, and apply them throughout my layout, as a way to say that you don’t need a map to find YOUR destination. In the illustrations there are lines, which you usually see in maps to indicate the roads and streets, I used just the outlines with the intention to show that there are many roads you can take to, you don’t need to know the exact address. On the back cover there is a qr code to a website which I intend to develop in a future, where people can ask questions and find the answers to from other travelers, about traveling. To share experience and help other people.
