ISTD - Mapping of the World

Editorial

What possibilities unfold when exploring the world of maps from your chosen point and developing a typographical solution to communicate your vision?

Starting with a Sci-Fi and Fantasy-inspired world in a new universe called Suil, I created a book recounting an adventure in a rotating, world-sized cylinder

where civilization had regressed

to a medieval-like era.

 

My aim was to captivate readers’ imaginations and immerse them in the universe of Suil. From a journal I created about Bard the explorer, I developed a map and combined it with the book, forming an antique-inspired booklet. Designed with parchment-like paper, a limited color palette reminiscent of ancient inks, and handwriting-style typefaces, the booklet evokes the essence of ancient civilizations’ cultures and languages and can be sold as merchandise to enhance the reader’s experience.
