Cook Book Design
Cook. Eat. Love. by Fearne Cotton
Publisher: Orion Spring
This cookery book by Fearne Cotton presents a selection of her favourite healthy and delicious family recipes. With a style provided by Orion’s in-house team, Goldust Design laid out 224 pages, creating not just a vibrant and easy-to-follow book for readers but also adding another income stream for the Fearne Cotton brand.
Olive Cook Book Series
Publisher: Orion Publishing
Olive is an award-winning food magazine and this was their first cookery book series. Using the magazine design as inspiration, Goldust Design created a complete book design series style including a vibrant colour palette to complement the contemporary food photography and link each title in the series. We then laid out all six cookery books from cover to cover. The main challenge was that looking at food photography all day makes us hungry!
Bread Therapy
Publisher: Yellow Kite
Bread Therapy is a calm, reassuring and hopeful book about how the mindful act of making bread can aid our emotional and psychological wellbeing. Using the book cover design as inspiration, we chose some softly rounded fonts, including an elegant hand-written script, and sourced some organic line illustrations to reflect the hand-made, gentle and loving act of bread baking. A wheat field on the endpapers aids the transition from cover to text and the illustrations are carefully scattered throughout to mark new sections, vary pace and set the tone.
