This is final table of contents for Zephyr 2009. It’s basically my masterpiece in the sense that it took longer to create than any other part of the magazine and was hell to make (it involved actual calculations!).
It’s printed across two pages, but is used vertically, which is hard on a computer screen, so I’ve rotated it in this image.
Writing is listed on the left hand side in the order it appears in the magazine. The color of the bar is the average color of the nearest image, the length of the bar corresponds to the length of the piece of writing.
On the right hand is the art with the individual average colors.
We did it this way because we wanted to redefine what a TOC can be. I think we definitely ended up with something that’s way more useful, interesting, and fun! My favorite part is that it truly ended up being a table of the contents.
