Gods I’ve Seen – Abbas
Phaidon
The design for the book begun with the typeface. The desire was to find something that felt comfortable culturally beside the photographs, as well as something that would communicate some of that heaviness of the subject matter. The dense setting and oversized type size on the chapter dividers emphasized this. The bronze-gold – or what I like to think of as a dirty gold – had the right balance of bling and grit to it.
