Instructional Design

The goal of this project was to design an instructional experience for a user. Picking from a list, we were to design and produce a "how-to" piece using both image and text, and were to explain our idea simply and aesthetically pleasingly through words and images. My task was "Mailing a Letter".







Trying to make the book something useful and appealing for letter writers to buy, I created an instructional book that was easy to understand and also had the potential to hold envelopes, stamps, and stationary if so desired (the link above will take you to the pdf format). The pages were created in Adobe Illustrator, printed out, and bound via a plastic spiral coil for easier flippability to desired pages. The front and back cover are also mounted on a harder board material to give the book some weight and make the pages seem more like a book.
