House Specials

During lockdown in April 2020, I produced a cooking zine with my friends Mia, Sarah and Jess. We asked people what they were cooking in quarantine, and collected the recipes in a mini newspaper. I designed the layout and illustrated the cover, divider pages and several recipes. The cover illustration, inspired by the style of Edward Bawden, reflects the new and sudden interiority of our home lives. It also alludes to a sense of hope and comfort from home cooking, spring and the world outside our windows. From our separate tables, we can still feel a sense of togetherness as we cook and feed ourselves. Printed by Newspaper Club.
