- Staten Island SEEN exhibition catalogue, cover spread
I designed the exhibition catalogue for Staten Island SEEN, published in conjunction with the permanent exhibition at the Staten Island Museum at Snug Harbor Cultural Center, opening September 17, 2015. The catalogue runs 126 pages and presents three long-form essays alongside a complete plate section presenting works from the exhibition, tracing the borough's history and landscape from the 17th century to the present. The publication was also adapted to a digital edition for online display and distribution. I coordinated with Linda Locke, Publication Director, throughout the project.
Scope of Work
- Visual identity development for the publication.
- Concept development and design direction.
- Layout design and typography across 126 pages.
- Image preparation for print and digital use.
- Digital edition adaptation for online display and distribution.
- Coordination with the printer through production.
Visual Identity
The visual identity for this catalogue was developed as part of the larger exhibition project. I was responsible for the complete design language of the exhibition — typographic system, color, graphic approach — and this extended fully into the catalogue, creating continuity across all materials produced for Staten Island SEEN.
Design Overview
The catalogue was designed as a cohesive scholarly object, with a typographic and layout language capable of supporting both long-form essay content and sustained image presentation across 126 pages.
