Material Works Catalog

Material Works Catalog is a publication made by Pils Kubben with Frode Skaren and Thomas Kjelberg for the fine arts BA students' Material Works exhibition at The National Academy of the Arts in Oslo. I love the simplicity of the catalog graphically, allowing the four differently colored covers be striking visual elements and the blue text to stand out elegantly. The inside of the catalog displays the work of the students well in the sense that the design of the layout showcases the beauty of the images rather than overtaking it. The use of just one typeface in one size with the additional element of a bar for highlighting information is a great example of minimal design standing out. In a side note, the invitation and poster for the exhibition work very well with the catalog and share the same look and design choices. (see on Flickr)—Charis Poon
