BOOK FAIR

As part of the image module we had to design and create a set of 10 books for the Leeds International Artists Book fair held at Leeds University. Here's the queue's waiting to get in at the university...


I decided to play on the idea of what a book is and go for a set of cards featuring one of the 26 letters of the alphabet screen printed on each in both upper and lower case. These are then held in a specially screen printed box. These are the designs...


And this is what they look like once they're made. To be honest I was pretty damn happy about the final outcome, they took forever to make and a lot of effort but they work really well. And I sold one!! Just the one like, but still, it's something! Apparently the guy who bought it really got the concept, he was all like "Hmmm...it's interesting because it challenges what a book is...". Totally didn't expect it, but it's nice that your work can be appreciated.
Oh yeah - i'm a professional, selling graphic designer. BOO-YA!
