  • Concept development
  • Photography and graphic design of the book.

Concept

Although these texts are very distinctive, they share a common detail: they stand out from each other but maintain a sarcastic and pessimistic tone, describing everyday situations where the main characters’ experiences unfold by chance.


Therefore, the concept was to use everyday photos, randomly arranged, to visualize this idea.
