A Handful of ClayBook Design2021
A Handful of Clay is a children's book based on the original story by Henry van Dyke. It tells the story of how a piece of common clay dreamed to become something beautiful, and the long and painful journey it went through to discover its own unique value. The design of the book combines traditional aesthetics with modern digital techniques — utilizing textures, warm tones, and hand-drawn illustrations to emphasize the earthy and tactile aspect of the story.
This project was completed in collaboration with DERT, a social enterprise that activates books into fundraising tools that raise money for literacy programs.
