OUGD406 - Studio Brief 04 - Layout

It was decided to produce this guide in a square format of 150mm x 150mm, taking inspiration from the aesthetics of the social media site, Instagram. This was thought to make the format of the guide subtly more relatable to an audience of students, as well as keeping the original links to children’s book formats. The size also enables the guide to be pocket sized so that students can carry it around with them if they ever need a bit of humorous advice when shopping to make the experience slightly less stressful, as well as enabling the guide to be produced fairly cost-effectively.

The layout features a consistent order of illustration then texture, as well as an order of black then white, alternating on each page. This was done in order to allow us to cut away elements of each illustration and for the appropriate texture to be displayed underneath, avoiding problems in accidentally eliminating elements of other designs.
