Life Nature Library: The Forest
My assignment was to redesign a book from the iconic Time Life series. I was assigned The Forest.
Ever since I was a child, I’ve always been fond of nature, the calm sense it emits, and the beauty it possesses. I used to play in the forests around my house as a kid, and to me it felt like a whole different world. In working on my Time Life book I decided to represent the quiet elegance of nature, with emphasis on simplified shapes and white space. I wanted to limit the color palette for the text chapters, while still presenting the readers with breathtaking full color images in the photo essays.
