Lo Oculto, ya ha sido revelado solo falta verlo (“The Hidden has already been revealed, just need to see it”) is a series of books. In each volume, three disciplines belonging to occultism are presented. This first volume is about Astrology, Tarot and Kabbalah. This personal project was made to obtain a diploma in Editorial Design at the Universidad de Belgrano.

A single copy was produced for the presentation of the project. It is printed in three inks: black for texts with Pantone metallic copper and warm gray for images and graphics. The cover features a circular die-cut that reveals a detail of the title page. It also shows hand-engraved dots made of copper foil. This decorative pattern extends to the spine.

I’ve used Alegreya for the main text, with Alegreya Sans for marginal notes and Warnock for titles. In “Lo Oculto”, several glyphs have been repurposed to achieve a more mysterious look: L and t use the swash terminal alternates, O is Ŏ (O with breve) with an extra dot in the counter, and the Greek final sigma (ς) stands in for c. The Hebrew letters on the title are from David Libre.
