Firecrest: Project Learning – Mammals

redpaper — Sun, 17 May 2009 05:27:12 +0000

This is a buy-in from an Australian publisher. The original was in mono with inconsistent typography. But the text was good, so rights were bought and we were asked to repackage the book with Firecrest’s artwork to produce new layouts. An Einstein boffin character is used to raise issues and mediate the learning.

Firecrest: Day and Night – Everglades

redpaper — Sat, 09 May 2009 02:20:43 +0000

Lavish fold-out books describing animals and plants in their habitats. We have begun the second book which covers the Everglades. A beautiful fold-out spread pictures the flora and fauna of the habitat, and subsequent pages work through each example. These designs were done for the Bologna and Frankfurt book fairs. We are now working on them for publication in the USA.

There are different fold-outs covering the nocturnal habitats too.
