TWO DESIGNERS TIMELINE
An accordion-style book chronicling the major art and design achievements of one historical and one contemporary designer, with relevant historical context. I was assigned Varvara Stepanova as the historical figure, while I chose Paul Buckley as my contemporary designer.
The challenge of this project was not only to include a dense amount of information into a small space, but also in creating a cohesive design for two very stylistically different designers with no timeline overlap. Choosing the proportions to be a square measuring 9 in by 9 in, I knew I wanted to take advantage of how the accordion folds. I decided to have the timeline for both designers be linear, with historical context functioning as vertical foldouts. Stylistically, I tried to find a typeface that was reminiscent of Stepanova’s Constructivist influence while also looking more modern.
