book design projects by Jennifer Kyte
Magnum Mopus.
Illustrated poetry book.
Poet, Dave Walsham wanted something that stood out. The book design needed to suit the anti-establishment tone of the poems. I designed the covers, all the interiors and created the photo-collages.
I then helped Dave to publish the book professionally. Click the link below to buy a copy. £10.99.
Chris Bucklow.
Three books written by Christopher Bucklow, typeset and designed by me.
Said Now, For All Time was the accompanying catalogue for Chris’s retrospective exhibition at Southampton City Art Gallery, and contains an essay by Alex Faulkner and preface by Martin Harrison. Life On Mars is a transcript of a fictionalized radio program on Mars, in the style of Melvyn Bragg's In Our Time. The fictional academics discuss 3 of Chris's paintings and their possible meanings. Nantucket Sleighride is a collection of Chris's recorded dreams from 1986 - 2017 with an accompanying essay.
Rehearse It.
A pdf book by pitch expert Michael Parker, designed to be read on a phone. Michael has two other books published in traditional printed and bound book format. I designed Rehearse It! to tie in with those books. Find out more on Michael’s website, and download a free copy of the pdf book there
