the process
To kick off the project, I created a mood board with visual inspirations to establish the look and feel of the book. Here are the key design elements:
Handwritten Fonts: Since the project revolves around notes, poetry, and personal reflections, Will's own handwriting are used throughout the book to add a personal touch.
Illustrations: Marker-drawing styled illustrations are incorporated to give a quirky, contemporary feel, complementing the wit and humor of the content.
Full-Bleed Coloured Pages: To enhance the reading experience, especially on text-heavy pages, a few full-bleed coloured pages are included.
These design choices ensure the booklet is both personal and engaging, making it a memorable gift for Will's loved ones.
