David Kalkbrenner's cover

This is my temporary cover. The cropped letters in the background will be mixed up and none will repeat. The 'Experimental Typography' won't be black and white, just one or the other. I wanted to see which would look better. 

David Kalkbrenner's ideations/spreads

  The topic of my book is The Experimental Typography of Stefan Sagmeister. Stefan Sagmeister started a diary at the age of 14. In this diary, he titled his entries ‘Things I have learned so far in my life.” After coming up with fifteen entries, he began to typographically design them in strange and creative ways and present them in various places all over the world. In my book I want to show off his extremely orginal typographic work.

  Since his work is so over the top, the style of my book will comment that by being subtle and not trying to compete with his work. The body text will be Baskerville bold and the captions will be Helvetica. Each chapter will be a different diary entry and the chapter openers will be the title of the diary entry hand-drawn with decorative additions that I will also use throughout the book. Color for now will be black and white since the images are so colorful and vivid.

  The chapter openers are temporary at the moment. They will be refined for the final.

My book is going to be about International Style in your everyday life. It will include photographs, that I have taken, of design in your everyday life that was inspired by International Style. Here are some spreads as well as a cover idea. I plan to mimic the photo layout with the text.

I'm pretty close to done. I still have to add page numbers, markers, sources, and a cover. Get ready for 16 images. Peace.
