This edition needed a clear structure for the design. The text contains words that are highlighted and explained in the margin. A compact and well-arranged book with more than three hundred tables and lists that makes it easy for the reader to absorb the contents.
I chose Frank Blokland’s DTL Documenta because of its classic timeless character and it gives enough difference in color and tone in a typographical field, without it becoming boring. A very pleasant typeface to work with.
The paperback book contains 460 pages. The interior is made up of two spot colors: black and red. The cover is full color.
