The Story of the Solar System

Book Design and Illustration

Role: Book design and illustration   | Client: BBC Books @ Penguin Random House
Book design and illustration for the 192 page book, BBC The Story of the Solar System: A Visual Journey.
Together with writer Simon Guerrier and Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock, I created infographics and illustrated diagrams to make the information accessible and engaging, especially for the target age group of 11-14 year olds. I visualised data in ways that had never been showed before, such as deconstructing Saturn's rings into accurately distanced bands of colour and my personal favourite—a footer showing the to-scale distances of some of Jupiter's many moons over an extraordinary number of pages! 
The result is a visually stunning, easily digestible book of space science.

Cover design, using illustrations and graphics I created for the interior pages of the book

Using data from NASA I depicted the journeys of all the Mars Rovers by mapping it on to my painted surfaces
