Lacuna Part I.
The Creation of the Mystery and the Girl from Blue City

Client: Jared Sorensen

Book Design and Layout

Enigmatic agents dive into "Blue City," a dream-world inhabited by spider-faced assassins, manifested psychoses, and a mysterious entity classified as "The Girl."

Just as the city is built from humanity's subconscious, the cover texture is actually a letter written by a citizen of Blue City. As the reader goes deeper into the book, the layout transitions from Constructivist to Deconstructivist. Arachnids emerge from the text and the heartbeat in the footer becomes more erratic. The book finally implodes into pages filled black with unintelligible, multi-layered text.
