RESULTS Visual system, physical book, editorial design
The cover features a collage of his different works at different sizes in a symmetrical pattern. In this way, his collective work becomes its own piece of art.
Style
A limited color palette symbolizes the stark Constructivist ideals and helps to emphasize the abstract lines and forms of his work.
The white space frames the images and the text relies on a combination of the grid and varying rules. Organic figures break the mold and provide a sense of motion and dynamism to the layout.
Large full-bleed pull quotes break up the contrast between hard geometric and organic forms.
