Consider the Lobster Booklet
Book Layout · Editorial Design · Publications
I designed a booklet for "Consider the Lobster," an essay by David Foster Wallace that explores the ethical implications of how lobsters are treated at the Maine Lobster Festival. The essay begins with a light, observational tone, but gradually shifts into philosophical and scientific inquiry, raising questions about animal consciousness and lobster boiling. This tonal progression is reflected in the booklet’s design, with increasingly prominent callouts and visual cues that echo the essay’s shift from casual reporting to moral confrontation.
