The Braai Book

COOKBOOK DESIGN 

I recently worked on a brief which required me to design a South African
themed cookbook. I based the idea of the book on the braai culture in S.A.
All the chosen recipes, including dessert would be produced on an actual
braai stand or grill.























The cookbook project gave me the opportunity to use unconventional layout 
dimensions for the book size. This resulted in the cookbook having a more 
unique look when placed on the shelf. For my cookbook I wanted to keep the 
layout relatively simple, and by doing so hoped to achieve a more 
contemporary look. 
I decided to allocate a page for the recipe layout and the adjacent page for 
photography. All the meals were prepared and shot by me :)
