-
The strong, graphic design of Kitchen by Mike takes inspiration from the eatery itself. The type and layout act as an extension of the restaurant’s branding and style. The industrial, masculine look of the warehouse space is also incorporated into the book by using photographed elements as the layered background textures. Coloured fore edge printing was used to blacken the edges of the pages to make this book a complete package.
