American Graphic Design Awards 2025
A typographic journey through self-discovery inspired by the film 'I Saw the TV Glow' redefines authenticity and expression.
This book is intended to tell the story behind self-discovery and acceptance through the lens of the A24 movie, I Saw the TV Glow. Through the use of chaotic and experimental design, the book serves as a journey through a life of self-reflection. The use of typography aims to lead the audience through surreal feelings of questioning, confusion, loss, denial, and acceptance. The pages take the viewer on a journey through a greater transformation that redefines the meaning of self-expression and authenticity.
