Instrukcja obsługi lasu by Peter Wohlleben is a book about discovering forest life.
I was asked to design a layout and make some illustrations.
Instrukcja means guide in Polish. I decided to use simple, geometric, “technical” forms in this layout, on the contrary of photos or complicated drawings in most of the books about nature. There are some of my inspirations and final works below:
I prepared more than 30 illustrations for this book. They were used on the title page in each chapter and in the text.
Each chapter has its own color. I have used yellow, orange, red and green – typical for forest in autumn.
