The book Zeven talen in zeven dagen (“Seven languages ​​in seven days”) was authored by Gaston Dorren and published by Athenaeum – Polak & Van Gennep, Amsterdam. 2022

In this book you will learn to read seven languages ​​in seven days. The author, language journalist Gaston Dorren, takes you on an adventurous journey. A practical book in which you gradually learn to read seven languages: a seductive and attainable goal.

This edition needed a clear structure for the design. The text contains words that are highlighted and explained in the margin. A compact and well-arranged book with more than three hundred tables and lists that makes it easy for the reader to absorb the contents.

I chose Frank Blokland’s DTL Documenta because of its classic timeless character and it gives enough difference in color and tone in a typographical field, without it becoming boring. A very pleasant typeface to work with.

The paperback book contains 460 pages. The interior is made up of two spot colors: black and red. The cover is full color.
