OUIL406- Visual Communication- Cabinsz


Philip-jodidio-taschen-cabins-int-1Yesterday in the library I came across this book called 'Cabins'. I was simply pottering around the library, still struggling to come to terms with what I wanted to do for this brief. As mentioned previously on my blog, I am really interested in how buildings and their ecological surroundings work together and the different types of trees/building that work harmoniously, environmentally and visually.

The book explores different cabins and the surroundings they sit within, which obviously immediately caught my attention. The book is brilliantly illustrated and relies heavily on shape throughout, which weirdly fits right in with this brief. See below some examples from the book.

This book is the shit.

I am really glad I found this book, because I have found it really inspirational in many ways, but in many ways I'm so pissed off, I feel I may become too influenced by this book. Hopefully not.

The illustrations really appeal to me, I am really enjoying using shape at the minute, and I love he use of texture used in these.
