Print design project highlighting the various cuisines of Japan. This project encompassed skills such as layout, bookbinding, icon creation, photo editing, copywriting, and infographics.
Japanese cuisine is as nuanced and diverse as they come. This book introduces the genre through seven different cuisines from sushi to ramen.
I wanted the book to be a tactile experience because in Japanese cuisine texture can be just as important as flavor. Linen paper, stab-stitch binding, a die-cut cover, and translucent paper were employed to accomplish this.
As a companion piece for the book, I created a "Sushi 101 Kit." This kit has an infographic guide and tools to create your own sushi masterpieces at home.
