We aren't human without mistakes. Mistakes made many discoveries and inventions possible. Like Albert Einstein said, "A person who has never made a mistake never tried anything new." This booklet creates intentional mistakes that highlight the beauty in chaos—presenting a collection of world-famous mistakes in an unconventional format.
From accidentally discovering the miracle drug penicillin to intentionally making mistakes to prove a point. There is a valuable lesson to learn from mistakes. By extracting visual elements from these mistakes. The booklet presents uniquely collaged artwork based on the mistake.
To have some order in the chaos, I had to set rules I absolutely cannot break. That ends up being readability, reading order, book material, and book pacing. The rest are broken methodically to ensure visual identity stays consistent.
The layout was the most difficult to plan. To overcome the confusion, I created mockups of each page and calculated the angle I needed to design for. It helped a lot and made the process smoother with minimal mistakes.
The white background with warped text serves as a divider, providing the much-needed breathing room between chapters. Given how confusing the page layout already is, these negative spaces serve as crucial indicators of the beginning and end, anchoring and unifying the entire booklet.
