“The design brief for Tina Duncan’s self-published cookbook called for creating a resource that is both highly functional and visually appealing. The goal was to produce a guide suitable for beginners and experienced foodies alike. The book needed to blend the warmth of Tina’s storytelling, and extensive knowledge and passion for cooking into a cohesive and engaging format. Key features to highlight were practical tips, essential processes, QR links to instructional videos, and a comprehensive cross-referencing system. The design aimed for a practical, well-organized, legible, and elegant presentation, ensuring the book quickly became a trusted favourite for readers.”
