About the project
The Brief
Karien Basson approached us with a unique project: designing the layout for two books, one in Afrikaans and one in English, that explore the role God plays in the lives of prominent South African sports stars. In addition to the book designs, we were also tasked with producing videos of each featured athlete, accessible to readers via QR codes at the end of each chapter for extended content.
The Solution
The covers featured some of the sportstars, adding a personal touch that would immediately connect with readers. For the content pages, we included photos that showcased the athletes' lives off the field, offering a glimpse into their personal journeys. Each chapter was structured to maintain a smooth flow between the narrative and the visual elements.
The videos were shot to complement the book's content, providing an engaging, multimedia experience that resonated with the book’s message.
Involvement
The final design included both print and digital elements, with the book available in physical format only. The QR codes were integrated seamlessly into the layout, providing an interactive experience that extended the book's impact. This project allowed us to blend traditional book design with modern multimedia, offering readers a comprehensive and engaging way to connect with the stories.
