Cook Book Design

I based my book on Vegetarian meals. My good friend is a vegetarian and she often refers to herself as a “veggie”. With this in mind I decided to name my book Cooking for Veggies, in other words Cooking for vegetarian people. Each chapter of the book is based on a “veggie“ and their favourite recipes. In Nicoles chapter I have added the vintage radio’s because she enjoys cooking with music and i felt that it would add an interesting element to the chapter. Her favourite tracks are also listed, as a reccomendation  to anyone who is following the recipe.

I used photographs to illustrate the meals that were produced and very simple handrawn elements of vegetables and vintage inspired radio’s as decorative elements to illustrate the editorial throughout my layouts. My drawings were then also used to create patterns, which I have used on my book cover and contents page.
