Book Design -- Bob Peak: Reflections (unpublished)
Bob Peak: Reflections was a proposal for a book that never saw print. This is the design for the Title Page. |
An example of an opening chapter spread. |
My intention was to design pages with no more than three pieces of art. Here I wanted to control the eye and slow down the pace of the viewer by using images that point to the opposite page. |
