The Smell
—Book Design

[ OBJECTIVE ]

Going through my daily routine, the things that I see, hear, smell and feel are good sources of inspiration. Record the things around me and design a book that reflects my personal experience.

[ CONCEPTS ]

I decided to record my feelings about certain smells over three days. Smells evoke emotions and memories. They are unseen, but impactful. When I smell the clear air in the morning, I feel energetic; when I smell the odor from a dirty street, I’m alert and sensitive. Smell is the sense that connects past experiences and memories the strongest, and somehow, it influences my behavior.
