Research -

For the initail stages of the research process the focus was on book layouts and covers. As the content hadn’t been collated at the start of this process the research was general and looked in to different formats and colours of publication design.

Development -

The design development stange was a long one. A variety of different conver variations were made, all exploring the theme of Precipice, and seperation. The grid layout put in place was a clear and simple grid, The stripped back grid is functional and allows the students work to be displayed in a neat orderly fashion. The header type face used was GT Sectra. This type face is very angular and structure which lends it’s self to the word precipice well.
