Taste Archive

Editorial Design and Illustration

Published: Sep/26

A cookbook zine that explores cooking as an act of observation and curiosity through notes, personal reflections, and recipes that invites the reader to experience cooking in a different way.

The main typography works as an archive itself combining characters from different typefaces that I collected during my studies and pairing it with an monospaced sans serif referencing typewriters and archival records.

The color palette uses contrasting and unexpected colors reflecting the diversity of stories and perspectives that can coexist, bringing energy and curiosity to the visual system.

Ever since my days as a cooker, I’ve kept notebooks where I liked to document, almost like an archive, everything I observed about food, along with the recipes I learned.

Inspired by my own reflections, I tried to translate this feeling into a visual language through a layout that keeps the reader curious just as I feel when I’m cooking.
