Life of a Pattern

Surface pattern designer Neisha Crosland wanted a book to showcase her body of work.

Solution

Patterns informed the whole design — titles and headlines are aligned and repeated, body text is set in blocks with a special paragraph break, and each chapter has its own icon. The themes of continuation, repetition and reflection were also explored within the bespoke photography. A metallic ink runs throughout as both an aesthetic that references the work and as a device to distinguish the words of the designer.
