Book Fair

Personal Grooming Handbook
After my initial idea failed i decided to use one of my other ideas, producing a personal grooming handbook for men. I would give three examples of breads/moustaches/hair per double page, i would also leave quotes relating to it. I wanted to have a play full theme in this book as well so i made the typeface and vectored images appropriate 





The blue and green look really good but they dont contrast well with the grey.


These are some of the stock and type colour variations i tried in the end i liked some of the other lighter blues but i decided on sticking with the brown as it contrasted the best with the white and the grey.

This was my initial front of my book but i then realised the book doesn't need a title and that its fairly self explanatory.




I like how my final product of my book came out as but if i could change anything i would stick to a different stock the antique white made the working look less harsh but it also reduced the visibility of a lot of my text a bit. I would also of used different background colours, the dark brown grey and white scheme works but some of the other colours were much more playful and would fit better with the humorous theme i was going with. The book did look a bit bare inside in the end would of helped if i added a bit more content into it.
