I developed the design for The Bat House Guide, translating educational and technical information into a publication that felt approachable and easy to navigate. I researched the subject matter and considered how diagrams, illustrations, photography, typography, and information hierarchy could work together to make the content more accessible to its audience.
I worked closely with the project team to organize a range of information into a clear editorial structure, developing layouts that could accommodate both instructional content and supporting visuals. Throughout the process, I refined the system across pages and sections to create consistency while allowing the content itself to determine the appropriate visual emphasis.
