LIGNES DE FUITE VOL. 1
This is volume 1 of a local fashion book series called Lignes de Fuite. The book is a compilation of student works and interviews.For this project I collaborated with Roman where our role as artistic director and graphic designer consisted of creating a balanced dynamic layout; allowing for each artists voices to shine through, while still allowing for a unified and cohesive product. Since it is an archival piece it was important for all aspects to be treated as visuals; including the text. Along with the books, posters were designed to be sold alongside. 40 books ended up being published to date and all profits received from the sales were donated to the FONDATION DE LA MODE DE MONTRÉAL.
