Book Design - The Black Cat - Edgar Allan Poe

Development Design Practice
Book Design + Cover and Dust Jacket
Dust jacket needed to be Screen Printed and using only one colour.
Within the book two colours.
My approach to the design was to take elements within the text, and bring them to life with little pictograms that I have created in Illustrator. The use of grid was extremely important as this is the basic of starting pagination within a book, which was achieved in InDesign.
Dust Jacket - 160 GSM Fabriano Tizziano Pastel Paper NEBIA/LIGHT GREY
Inside pages - 120 GSM Antique White Paper 
Cover Paper - 180 GSM Black Card
Perfect bind - glue bind
French fold. I wanted to use this type of folding because it's something one does not quite see everyday, and this is the first time, doing this project when I have herd of this, so I was more interested into French fold opposed to any other.
