Design Lives Here is a book of Australian architecture and interiors which also highlights bespoke furniture and lighting by local makers. The brief was that the book should be warm and approachable. It features 21 residences and each chapter closes with an image and text about the bespoke object. Two typefaces were used on the openers to differentiate the house and object. Three colours were used as background washes as well as for text on opening pages/pull quotes, as it was a challenge to tie the different photography together. This also added a playful feel.
