Miles Davis Book Redesign

brief
Find a poorly designed book and redesign several spreads using the content.
 
summary
I chose to redesign a book about Miles Davis. The previous design did not connect with the musician, so I pulled textures and colors that are not only reminiscent of the music itself, but also of the instruments. The black and white photography is especially impactful with the contrasting brass pops of color.
