The cookbook is the result of a project, that took place in some youth centers in and near of the city of Wuerzburg at the same time. Across a few weeks teenagers cooked their favorite meals concentrating on sustained yield at the same time: the products as had to be fair traded or seasonal goods out of the own region.
During developing the concept, I had the idea of working with kid’s illustrations instead of taking pictures. So the involved social workers started to visit elementary schools, that were located in the same neighborhood like the youth centers. They showed snapshots and the kids started to work, supported by their teachers. When starting the final layout I had to continue processing concerning the illustrations more or less. These simple graphic interventions made more out of it and something new arised. Amusing pictures combined with straight but playful typography formed a diversified book In the end.
