COOKBOOK
PUBLICATION DESIGN • ILLUSTRATION
PROJECT GOAL
A personal project to collate my family’s 100 most-used recipes from their
various sources (index cards, print-outs, etc) into a single well-designed cookbook.
LAYOUT & TYPSETTING
The layouts were designed from scratch in Adobe InDesign and utilize Master Pages and Styles. The focus was placed on making the information easy to find and legible both in a digital and physical format.
ILLUSTRATIONS
The book contains eight unique illustrated border designs, which were created in Adobe Illustrator and reflect the types of ingredients and recipes found in each section.
INTERACTIVE ELEMENTS
In addition to a physically printed book, the PDF of the cookbook is fully interactive, with a flowed Table of Contents and Index, and active hyperlinks and cross-references.
