Chapter Spread - Clothes

Chapter Spread - Clothes, originally uploaded by onemanstudio.

A spread of an opening chapter. Every chapter in the book has a opening spread resembling something like this with a very strong image and then the chapter itself. I think it works in it gets the reader involved into the subject matter.

I finally figured out the image posting and am using flickr. Here is the cover of my book.

problems

Some of problems I am still facing is categorization of the information I want to make it to sections and am working on it but have no come up with a successful solution. I will post some of my work in the days to come once I have figured out a solution. The other problem that I am having that was pointed out by Reg is that the book is very elegant and it takes away a bit from the problem of going green the images are clean and text is layed out very well. I am battling it in my head cause i feel that a clean solution would help just focus on the reading and understanding but have to come up with a way to let the reader interact. A glossary is in the making as well which will be incorporated on each page and has not been figure out as well.

Changes

As everyone in the class remembers I was doing a book on green solutions for the average joe in Canada. Over the period of the strike thinking it over I found there are many solutions out there and many interesting projects but not particularly in Canada. So instead I decided to make book on idea for green living. I was reading World Changing which is a great book by the way. And it changed a lot of my basic idea of the book. So now my book is on Ideas of green living any where and everywhere in the world. It is just pointers and directions and a basic guide of what a person can do to become a greener.
