Monothematic Publication

For this project, I was given a piece of text and tasked with designing a full publication to display this text within a creative theme to tell the story. I told the story of 'The Last Days of Detroit,' written by Mark Binelli, visually through shapes, colour and negative space. The story beings by telling of what Detroit used to be. It continues to describe it as an empty "acropolis," this emptiness is shown through black lines and empty space. Ending the story with hope, shown through bringing back coloured squares, to show the glimmer of hope.
