-
The cover is a collage of artworks and prints by Jenny and Linda to create a ‘paradise world’ that feels as if you could ‘step into’ it, while also representing their close collaboration and the real world they created together.
Our main challenge was to work so far in advance of the exhibition as we had to search through prints, publications and keepsakes for the book. The cover typography was later used for the exhibition branding, furthering the connection between the book and exhibition. For the internals the typography is simple, allowing the colour explosion of the clothes to shine.
