Design Direction: Picture Book

Creatures Come To Life With an Illustrative Touch

The Picture Book design direction is a celebration of beautiful illustrations: some from life, and others more abstract in nature. Featuring animals, birds and flowers in different playful forms, there are a diverse array of palettes and colourful interpretations of animal print patterns. The Picture Book direction shows standout ways to bring boldness, energy and a wonderful sense of vibrancy to a scheme.
