MOO Creative Brief : Pantone 2019
This was a short brief set by the Creative Department at MOO. The challenge was to create a Notebook Cover & Top Sheet design using the Pantone Colour of the Year 2019 : ‘Living Coral’. I decided to use a monochromatic palette using this main swatch. I wanted to create a cover that was very illustrative and detailed, and settled upon drawing my own little characters. As I was going to America that same month, I decided to base my illustrations around the US. The brief stated that the Top Sheet of the notebook must include a design quote. As my design was quite fun and cheeky, I chose the following Petrula Vrontikis quote: “Practice safe design, use a concept”
The book was printed on a MOO soft touch cover, with a Cool Grey ribbon, seam and endpaper.
