Typ o gra p h i c Tre a t me nt

The typographic approach must communicate a contemporary aedthetic, with simple functionality being paramount. Both to let the strength of the illustrations stand alone, but

more importantly to allow the ingredients and and method to function effectively.

1 Prepare a bowl of gelatin dessert according to the directions on the package. 2 Chill in the freezer for 45 minutes, or until partially set. 3 While the gelatine cools, squeeze the juice from the lemons into a pitcher, being careful not to include any seeds. 4 Add the 7 cups of water to the lemon juice. Stir. 5 Add the sugar and stir again. 6 Add green food coloring until Ghoulade is the desired shade. 7 Pour Ghoulade into individual glasses, then spoon partially set gelatine gopher guts into glasses. 8 Include long spoons when serving this drink to help your guests eat their guts out!

The books were printed on pastel coloured stock, with darker shades for the covers. The set is designed at four different sizes, and sit alongside each other, allowing for the user

to function all four books at once. Another consideration which created a serious tone and function to a product with ridiculous content.
