Design Research Booklet.




This booklet presented my Graphic Design thesis project which was based around the themes and tensions of tradition vs change and analogue vs digital.

There was a strong focus of craft in my project and this was carried through in the production of the booklet. I chose to print the booklet with a black and white photocopier onto heavy grey stock, with three different covers on colored stock.

Initially, I printed each page on white paper,then photocopied it onto new grey stock. I then photocopied it onto the grey stock again which gave the textures and lighter grey page borders.

A light blue spread in the centre of the booklet displayed my design work that made up the bulk of the project.

The booklet is set in Adobe Jenson Pro, the greatest font ever!
