The challenge

Mephisto/Faust is an interactive knowledge design. The focus is on an experimental editorial approach that makes complex content accessible visually.

  • Conveying complex content visually
  • Experimental formats beyond classic book design
02

Our solution

Development of an editorial system made up of two books and a flipbook. Infographics, maps and visualisations of mathematical concepts combine text and image into a consistent design concept. Illustrations and image editing complement the content.

  • Editorial design for two books and a flipbook
  • Infographics and visualisations of mathematical concepts
  • Cartography and illustrations
  • Experimental media and image editing
