Credo: rough mockup

Here’s the rough mockup of the “three books” idea. Instead of saddle-stitched books as I first thought I’d do, I’ve made concertina-folded pages. This means the sections can be looked at, and read, in any order. Books are so linear, at least this way there’s a little more fluid interaction. This also allows for a hide-and-seek feeling, so someone interacting with the document may see something different the second time they look.

Instead of naming each section on the outside, I’ve carried a quote across the three books: “where the adventure begins / is not always / where it will finish”.

After a discussion with Tony, he suggested I move the bulk of the text (because there is a hell of a lot of it) to the back of the concertina folded pages, but have a subtext on the front. I’m thinking introductory paragraphs and/or quotes at this stage.

He also suggested that I could change the sizes of the three sections in the folder, they don’t necessarily have to be the same size. For hierarchy’s sake, I’ll probably make the two text-based sections on the outer sides smaller, and then leave the centre folio larger.
