A book design project printed with 394 pages
and a study of the new
FCT website look & feel.

 

BRIEF
The book: 394 editorial pages designed from scratch.
The Atlas of R&D Units is an FCT publication that gathers information on the 312 investigation Units selected for funding. It's a reference book for the most important research projects in Portugal.

The website: The website needed to follow the newest FCT rebranding, therefore, I was asked to develop a few exercises for cards, banners, and icons set.

 

The work behind the book:

Building the Grids

 

The goal was to plan an editorial grid that is not too dull and that fills out the need to condense a lot of technical information elegantly.

Adding texts, images and color:

Designing
the book

 

Choosing clean and modern images was an essential part of the project. Also, the punctuation with bright colors in single and spread pages makes the blocks of content less serious and repetitive. Overall, the book becomes lighter and more accessible to read.

Printing
and final look

 

As a final result, the book was finished with a soft matte cover. The cover lines were printed with a slightly raised, clear gloss varnish.
Print production: Elias Produção


Web: icons
and images

 

For the website it was designed simple icons in line with the brand standards.
The selection of images (which are presented in multiple banners, heros and cards) were carefully chosen, in order to offer credibility to the Institution.
