eBook design for The Design Trust

Brief

The Design Trust commissioned me to design their Ultimate Resources Guide 2021. With over 550 online resources for creatives, including blog posts, apps and podcasts this was ideally suited to being presented as an interactive eBook.

Response

The design needed to clarify the structure of a lot of text-based information to support look-up tasks. To do this, I established a consistent structure for each themed section, sub-section, and individual resource. To make the fifty-six page file easy to move around and to support look-up tasks, I created a clickable contents page as well as clickable hyperlinks to each of the external resources.

The eBook uses colours and typefaces from The Design Trust’s established visual identity, including some visual references to typographic styling seen in existing materials.
