100 Inspirational Quotes: A Typography Book by Fazaal Naufer

A Compilation of Inspiring Quotes Visualized with Typography and Illustration

Fazaal Naufer, a professional in the creative industry, understands the challenges that come with the profession. Designs can go wrong, ideas may not get noticed, and trusted individuals can let you down. In tough times like these, it is essential to keep faith alive and stay focused on the work at hand. To maintain a positive mindset, Fazaal came up with the idea of designing a book filled with inspirational quotes that he could refer to on bad days at the office.

The uniqueness of this book lies in its compilation of 100 inspiring quotes by great personalities. These quotes are visualized and represented in an appealing form, using effective typography, illustration, and graphic elements. While there are numerous websites with inspiring quotes, there is no specific design-based book available that combines these quotes in one package. The use of illustrations and colors helps the reader remember and capture the message, resulting in a truly inspiring experience.

The design of the book is meticulously crafted, with attention given to every detail. The cover page is made of 260GSM Artboard with Matte Lamination and Spot Varnish on the letters of the title. The inner pages are printed on 120GSM Gloss Paper. The book consists of 104 pages, with each page measuring 297mm in width and 105mm in height. The perfect bind ensures that the book is sturdy and durable.

Creating a book with 100 unique quotes and visuals presented its own set of challenges. Fazaal Naufer had to ensure that each quote looked distinct and different from one another. Choosing the right typefaces was also crucial in conveying the correct message, as typefaces have the power to change the entire outlook of a simple message. Additionally, the layout of the book had to be unique and different from other available books. The horizontal and narrow layout sets it apart and provides a fresh perspective.

The project started in January 2015 and was completed and printed by April 2015 in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Fazaal Naufer conducted extensive research on the internet to find the most viral and shared inspirational quotes. Social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram were used to collect and analyze the most shared and liked images and designs. The research revealed that quotes that were simple, colorful, and visually depicted the message were more likely to be shared. This insight guided the design process, ensuring that the book would inspire and resonate with its readers.

The 100 Inspirational Quotes book by Fazaal Naufer has received recognition for its outstanding design and innovation. It was awarded the Silver A' Design Award in 2016 in the Graphics, Illustration, and Visual Communication Design category. This prestigious award is given to designs that showcase exceptional expertise, innovation, and artistic skill. The book's strong technical characteristics and ability to evoke positive feelings make it a remarkable piece of design.

With its unique combination of inspiring quotes, typography, and illustration, the 100 Inspirational Quotes book by Fazaal Naufer is a must-have for anyone seeking motivation and positivity in their lives. Whether you are a designer, artist, or simply someone in need of a daily dose of inspiration, this book is sure to uplift and empower you.
