Final “multipagemania” project Mark Stammers Intermediate Typography class. Requirements were to design a series of spreads for a book based on an artist of your choosing. The main emphasis being on composition with type and work with filler text.
However, I wanted to work with both English and Japanese type. Being Japanese myself, I find my work and style heavily influence by that part of my identity. The artist I chose was Asian American sculpture artist, Isamu Noguchi. With Noguchi’s half Japanese and half white identity, I designed spreads that included English text translated into Japanese.
