O.C.D
The outcome is a type-base book exploring the topic in a visually storytelling; with the use of Typography Design. With the story being about O.C.D - the outcome became something that was telling the story for those outside of the community. It was made in the hopes that a better understanding would be created on the invisible struggles of those who obtain O.C.D or have a close person who does.
Breaking down the text into small pieces of writing highlights and better explores the story that was being told. The use of concrete poetry helped to create a visual representation without the need to use imagery. I tried to create a very slow, but detailed pace to the book. Trying to intertwine as well the scientific side to the topic.
The use of paper and weight was purposely placed, to trigger a feel of fragility by touch and a translucency that made certain pages blend with each other. The final outcome becomes a combination of the sterile paper, with a human touch and some-what imperfectness to the editing of the text.
