Japanese Whisky is a publication design project that reimagines the layout of an existing book, emphasizing typography, hierarchy, and systemized structure. Rooted in the principles of Japanese minimalism, the design enhances readability and visual harmony while preserving the craftsmanship and rich storytelling that define Japanese whisky culture.
By integrating a refined typographic system, the design balances tradition and modernity. The interplay of Japanese vertical typography and English horizontal text creates a dynamic reading experience, reflecting cultural duality. Precise grid structures, elegant serif typefaces, and warm, textural elements capture the meticulous craftsmanship of whisky-making, while subtle details evoke depth and sophistication.
