Hardcover with lay-flat binding and endpaper. Printed on high-quality silk photo paper.
Software and Tools
- IMAGELYTE dpi for RAW image processing.
- Adobe Photoshop for photo editing and layout composition.
Challenges & Solutions
Capturing the essence of a road trip through design, ensuring the viewer experiences the adventure and spontaneity of the journey, posed a challenge.
The narrative and photo sequence were carefully arranged to mirror the natural flow of a road trip, enhancing the feeling of exploration. Additionally, unique camping sites and mountain roads were emphasised to reinforce the road trip experience.
Outcome
“Arctic Norway: Epic Road Trip” successfully extends the visual narrative begun in the first volume “Norway: Epic Road Trip”, offering a deeper exploration of Norway’s northern part.
