project brief
This project aimed to create an informational guide on our topic of choice. In Full Bloom is a guide that helps nature enthusiasts navigate the top botanical gardens in California. The content of the guide emphasizes the Fibonacci Sequence and its presence in nature, while the layout of the booklet follows the principles of the golden ratio. The golden ratio is consistently used as a design motif and grid. These considerations result in visual harmony and an engaging learning experience.
