OBJECTIVE

The objective of this project was to format a coffee table-style photography book with accompanying text.

Insectarium uses the text from An Elementary Study of Insects by Leonard Haseman. The dense academic text was transformed by being paired with striking insect photographs. The images of the insects are extreme close-ups, making them appear larger than life. The vibrant color palette was pulled from the insect imagery and applied to visually separate sections.
