PAGE DESIGN

As you open the book, before getting to the double page spreads there will be a page which includes the title of the publication. I wanted this page to give a glimpse in to the rest of the book and so i've created designs using scanned negatives from the images inside the publication along with some of the illustrations and the title written in a wavy type style.

This is the initial design, using a thicker hand drawn type. The type was too big for the page and got lost when it hit the white space within the gaps of he negatives

I then drew out a smaller, thinner title type, and overlaid some illustrations, more of which will be found through the publication.

I edited the colouring of the illustrations slightly in order to go with the colours of the negatives (which colours have also been adjusted).

I want the first page to give that vintage and creative feel, i really like the style of this page, however i'm now questioning the appropriateness of the front cover as it stands.
