Personal Cookbook Design Project

In an English food literature class, I was required to communicate a recipe of personal significance in any manner I saw fit. Naturally, given my passion for graphic design, I created a cookbook template and designed four pages of a cake-like protein dessert. Additionally, I've included in the project folder the full pdf version as well as my drafting process and overall workflow.

​

All in all, I'm particularly proud of how this work implements three major areas of software proficiency. I created smaller drawings in Adobe Illustrator, high-resolution edits of my armor photography in Photoshop, and combined them all in InDesign. This piece marks how my amateur foundation of practical, hands-on experience has since increasingly been supplemented by academic theory and experience within UMD digital rhetoric and graphic design classes.
