With the founder of mind style magazine Happinez, Inez van Oord, we made the book “Als jouw leven een cirkel is, waar sta je dan?”. Being fascinated by circles, Inez used the circle to visualize the circle as symbol for your life. It can help you understand things, to classify certain moments and periods in your life and to see where you stand. Make a compass and determine where you are now, and where you are heading.

In the first part of the book she talks about her own life experiences, how ideas originate, why one idea works and the other doesn’t. About success and loss, but above all the possibility to change direction and start over. Her own life lessons. The second part is a more practical one. It takes you step by step how you can map out a new course becoming your personal, inner compass. It gives you grip in your daily life routine.

Starting with a moodboard we made the conceptual design for the book. The book being a guide, we wanted to use ink showing that it is a book to work with. Eva Bartels made illustrations with ink and coloring pencils which we all placed on the left. It has little stories in between which are placed on different background colors. The lessons are alternated by big bold quotes. So commissioned by Kosmos Uitgeverij we made the complete graphical design. The book is also published in France and Germany. And with it’s success we made a pocketbook and a card game, asking the same questions where you stand in life.
