OUGD406 - Studio Brief 03 - Further Publication Designs

After receiving feedback from the first group presentation, the slight change in concept for our exhibition did't require a change in the design of publication, and so I created some more sample designs for the publication. I extended the designs to example a variety of ways that the work would be curated on the walls of the exhibition, including the positioning around the windows.






As discussed in a group critique, I added an additional arrow to the layout, as the volume of work presented in the one space would be relatively large and there was the potential need for some kind of system to allow a viewer to follow the path of the work within the booklet.



Considering the reproduction of this publication, in order to mass produce a run of books to be used within the exhibition, both on the opening night and throughout the rest of the exhibition time, digitally printing the publications would be the fastest and cheapest printing method. The promotional posters for the exhibition will be screenprinted, and although the booklets will lose the tactile nature of this type of production when digitally printed, it would be the most viable option for producing a large number of professional publications.
