-
A-Z Series The A-Z series takes a look at some of Pop Culture’s most colourful characters in an almost adult picture book style design, perfect for the gift market. Pop culture in overdrive, the layouts work hard to differentiate information and illustration, leading the reader’s eye around the page through colours, graphics and wit. The series uses different illustrators for each artist, so the design works hard to make the series look uniform enough to hang together but different enough to be a surprise to the audience. A mix of hand drawn type and a simple sans serif are used.
