FINAL RESULT
Its 2035, and Justin’s autobiography has been published, chronicling his successful
career working with LEGO and Disney in various roles, from packaging to product
design to advertising. What makes the book unique is that it relies solely on
typography to entice readers. The book’s design was inspired by the logo of Disney
California Adventure, and it’s titled “My House of Gold - A Courageous Life.” It uses
the same typefaces as the logo, with “My” in Waltograph, “House” and “Of Gold” in
Mostra Nuova, and “A Courageous Life” in Mostra Nuova Bold.
