Tutu & Shoe is a publication that explores the history, types, and anatomy
of both the tutu and the ballet shoe. It breaks down how each form has evolved and highlights
the materials and structures that define them. The cover extends this concept through a
layer of real tulle, echoing the texture of a tutu, while the title is placed on a clothing tag
to reference the garments at the center of the book.

DESIGN APPROACH
I chose Didot for its elegance and high contrast, echoing the refined lines of ballet costumes and pointe shoes.
The layout uses generous spacing and soft pacing to mirror the lightness of movement. I also designed
a set of custom icons to simplify the tutu and shoe anatomy, adding a modern, minimal layer to the publication.
