The Classic FM 2011 Diary

Publishers Elliot and Thompson commissioned me to art direct the design of Classic FM's 2011 diary. 

My idea for the design focused on creating a book which felt effortlessly classical, to align with the Classic FM brand whilst creating a suitably old-world feeling diary. The combination of Baskerville 1757 and off-white paper pages means the diary feels like it belongs to an age gone by. This aesthetic was built upon with my idea to put a double page break at the start of each month, adorned with a musical note and faced with text which refers to the note opposite and to that time of year. 

If you'd like to get hold of one of these diaries you can buy it here.
