The Real Book - Redesign Concepts
Goals
To implement design features that would distinguish one The Real Book from another, while keeping to a concise palette, and easy to recognize branding. I wanted to complete this project after viewing the original designs for these books, while the logo itself is compelling, being able to spot the difference between the volumes, type for each different clef, and more, seemed to be a bit hard to distinguish. My design incorporated strict use of shapes, color, font, and imagery to delineate between the different options available for purchase,
