THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES
Book design for the most widely known novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle of Detective Sherlock Holmes. By copy-editing the text, I designed this condensed version with visually conversational typography to be read more as a conversation between characters. The imagery at the beginning of each chapter are personal photographs taken in Ireland and Italy, manipulated to match the aesthetic of the novel. The typography that leads each chapter aesthetically mimics the playfulness I had with the visual storytelling while reimagining a 100 year old book.
Art directed and designed, from conceptualization to storytelling and layout.
Experimental conversational typography design.
Close-up of chapter headers, designed by utilizing type-set typography and personal photography from Dublin. Printed on vellum.
