BOOK COVER DESIGN:

An original idea for a book, with a full-fledged conceptualized Illustrated book 
cover I made for the same. The general idea stems from A 9-5 worker stuck in his narrow shallow goals, driving himself to a dead-end path, unless he opens his
mind to a more holistic and fulfilling life experience, that is just one step away.

This is based on a haiku written by me: 
Narrow path, winding tight,
Vast open, endless sky past
Choice determines end.

BOOK BLURB

Nathan is a young man stuck in a dead-end job, trapped in his own narrow-mindedness and living a drab, mundane life in a cramped cubicle. Unfulfilled
and uninspired, he spends his days living what he feels is his ideal life. But as he watches the world pass him by, Nathan begins to realize that he is missing out on something. 

There awaits a land of fantasy and something truly special, right beyond the box he has trapped himself in, and all it would take is a single step outside his comfort zone, a leap of faith into the unknown. Can he overcome his fears and finally break free from the confines of his own mind?

A long and extensive process, working on a magazine design was an exciting and challenging experience for me. As a designer, I was able to explore my creativity and develop unique and visually appealing layouts. However, as with any design project, there were challenges and problems that I faced throughout the process.


This project involved a lot of iterations and concious decisions on typography, the exact colours, the film-like look and digital manipulation of the images as well explorations with pull quotes and even the ads, under the guidance of Yamini Tejumin, a reputed publication designer and mentor.

I chose a simple yet contrasting combination of white, red, and black for the entirety of my magazine design because it creates a bold and striking visual impact.

The audience for Travel & Leisure magazine would is individuals who have a keen interest in home decor, travel, and leisure.

ILLUSTRATED CHILDREN’S NOVEL

An extensive project I took up, which involved working with written material, two wholesome stories, heartwarming tales of food, nostalgia, and family. I worked on not only sketching out moodboards, formatting the text appropriately for the project, but also on realising a definitive and very different style from what I would normally do, to base on the book on. Using the theme I created, I worked on a simple yet charming stylised book cover and inner pages as well. Some example pages can be found here.
