Project Description: Symbolic Narrative Book

This project entailed the creation of a symbolic narrative book in A5 format, consisting of 20 pages. The objective was to convey symbolic storytelling without relying on textual elements, except for the title on the cover and captions. 

The design constraints include utilizing only two colors, with black being mandatory, and incorporating only one simple geometric element—either a square, circle, equilateral triangle, or straight line. Additionally, the project required the application of various design principles such as rhythm and balance, texture, framing, proximity, space, weight, scale, hierarchy, distance, and emphasis.
The chosen tale was "Peter and the Wolf", the circle as shape and the color "Pigment green". Keywords choosen were distance, weight and contrast. For the text, Helvetica was the font used.

Key moments of the narrative:
1- Spatialization of the tale
2- First call for help from Peter and assistance from the villagers
3- Return of the villagers after realizing Peter's prank
4- Repetition of Peter's joke and villagers' rush to help him
5- Final return of the villagers
6- Appearance of the Wolf and Peter's cry
7- Ingestion of the flock by the Wolf
8- Peter's understanding of the lesson
