As if the day never existed, an art book in-between day and night
Editorial
Context The Trail is a series of thirteen paintings by Koen Fillet based on a single theme: an overgrown wooden pathway in Wales. The painter looks at the trail from different points of view; from up-close to further away. The challenge for the book design was to show 13 paintings which – at first glance – look very alike but also each have their own unique qualities within the series.
Concept From the design to the binding, the book symbolises a path. The sleeve functions as a blueprint of the 13 paintings. The book itself is conceived as parts of this blueprint, allowing the reader to see smaller details as well as paintings in their full format.
