Diesel & Veggie OilTina De Souter Bookdesign

Diesel & Veggie Oil portrays musicians Joel and Anna as they tour the U.S. As a reader, you follow their story from the eye of photographer Timo Vergauwen until they end up in the hospital after a head-on car crash…
Printed on high-end tactile paper, the vintage-feel images set the tone. Thirty-two jeans-coloured pages are at the heart of the book, they tell the written story of this special journey. After the story, in the second part of the book, the mood changes quickly. The first image you encounter is their crashed van. A true bioscopic book: it’s a book that reads like a movie. The sand coloured paper used for the hardcover feels tactile and vintage. The route of the trip is visualized in a red line across the cover, printed in red hotfoil. The title was printed in a white hotfoil, right on top of an offset printed image. The book is bound using a Swiss bound hardcover open spine technique, therefore the book lays completely flat when open.
