Big Beautiful Baldwin is an annual magazine that serves as a guide to everything Baldwin County. It includes information about parks, outdoor activities, the county's history, annual events, live music, agriculture, food, city information and more.
The theme for 2014 was "Pathway to Progress." I developed this theme throughout the book by utilizing maps and paths. Each section intro features some type of path picture in one point perspective, for example entertainment shows a street path at an entertainment district. The table of contents was made into a map legend with icons you can find throughout the publication on their respective pages. Directional elements were used in headers for each page such as dotted lines and arrows. I also created several maps in Illustrator that are used to pinpoint locations of items in several sections. This tied in with the theme and helps the reader visualize where certain locations or things are in the county.
