Bioluminescence

A 12 page, 8 1/2 by 11" booklet using Anth and Akzidenz Grotesque, exploring the different types of Bioluminescence and the science behind it.

Process:

I referenced old encyclopedias to rethink a dense scientific topic into something clearer, pairing a bioluminescent, water-like flow with a clean, structured layout.

Learning Outcomes:

I learned about book design and how to tell a story and communicate a concept using typography and layout.
