thesis

in 2019, as part of my bachelor thesis, i conceived and created a coffee table book about the importance of shoes for gen y

skills &
learnings

  • concept & research
  • interviews & layout
  • editorial & product photography

the coffee table book allows you to pick up the book and turn to any page. still, the content of the book is designed following a red thread. the diverse page designs also allow you to flip through the book aimlessly

The colour coding of the individual pages serves to clarify the different types of content and to simplify orientation within the book. Black pages (as seen before) represent the contextual information about the particular shoes or opinions discussed in the following interviews on white

transparent intermediate pages make it possible to display contextual quotations or sayings on a matching background. this makes it possible to illustrate the high significance of shoes in our everyday language and life

the look and feel of "SHOE CONTACT BEFORE EYE CONTACT" functions as a total work of art and captivates with its attention to detail, such as a shoelace as a bookmark or an individual embossing of the book cover on a textile background - inspired by the sneaker classic Air Jordan. the shoe craft in all its multifaceted complexity and at the same time in its deliberate minimal functionality is represented in this informative and handcrafted production.
