Not knowing where to start with my book design I decided to just jump in at the deep end and start creating layouts in Indesign which was not the best of ideas, but I didn’t even realise at the time. I tried using vectors in the layout but I didn’t kno what it was but it didn’t really work, it turned out a little bland and old. It was obvious that I had to take a close look at colour at some point during this project too because I wanted to go for something classic but also something that would bring out a modern-feel to the piece.
I looked a little into the typography I was going to use in my layout. Overall, because McEwan’s writing has a certain eeriness yet classic feel to it I felt that serifs worked best to give it a more traditional and authentic style.
