Fantastic Recipes is a cookbook editorial project: cover, table of contents, and recipe spreads — pizza, brownies, lemonade, steak, avocado toast — set in a warm, illustrated layout system with consistent ingredient columns and step numbering. The finished book also appears photographed in my printed portfolio.
