Sign Language book-Poster - Along with just a Book that teaches sign language, I wanted the reader to be more involved with the content. Hence i also included a poster.

The story is self written, about the life of that one mat, from first perspective.

'mat' book - In order to make the book look like its about a Mat, i folded it in the way the mat is traditionally folded.
I like bringing in the origami feel to a work if its possible. Exploring different forms of a book has been an interesting part of publication design.

Book cover - Taking my calligraphic exploration to the next level, I have created a book cover for a fictitious book about One truth- God is one.
Here i followed a more exploratory process by writing the Kabir Dohas in calligraphic style than actually playing around more with the Layout of the cover.
