THE COFFEE TABLE BOOK OF SPEED
This coffee table book is a guide to some of the most exotic cars on the planet. I created this book for my Graphic Design II class as a sophomore in college.
The Ultimate Guide to Exotics
In my Graphic Design II class in college, students were required to have 12 pages minimum for this assignment. The assignment was a fantastic challenge full of restriction, which really let my creativity take off.
While everyone else was assigned two weeks to design this book, I joined the class late and finished the assignment not only within three days, but before everyone else. I'm not a procrastinator, so this assignment truly let my "anti-crastinator" side come out of me.
One of the toughest challenges of this book was trying to sort out an overall brand that fit with the typography on each page. All of the type is relevant to the cars displayed, rather than using placeholder text. The challenge came in managing what the type looked like on each page and how it worked with the colors, pictures, and other brand elements. The result is a book with a unique design custom tailored to each page, all while keeping the same branding themes.
