Tiramisu Cook book

No Comments »

For my last project for Advanced Typography, we have to design a page in a cook book. 
My recipe is a Tiramisu. This summer I studied abroad in Perugia, Italy for six weeks. During my those weeks I stayed with a host family. This recipe was taught to me and my roommate by our host mother, Rossana. We made this Tiramisu one wonderful sunny afternoon. 

Here's a few pictures of when we did it.

For my page design I have decided to focus on textures, 
since the process of making Tiramisu is so rich in textures. 

I made Tiramisu and took photographs of the textures created in the process.

I LOVE it when people use their creative talents to help others.

“The concept was to make ‘fashionesque images’ of the longest in residence at the dog pound near my home (some dogs had been there over six months). I specifically asked for the dogs that were the ‘least likely to be adopted’ and took their portraits to represent them with personality, youth and ‘edge’ in order to aid their adoption. All the dogs pictured here were adopted.”

"Latinos got the craziest font.

Take a look at the letter “S” in Latinos, does it look like it comes from the golden age of gang graffiti to you? Or like some low-rider cars should be in the picture too?"
