Clear margin required a lot of research. The brand positions itself as a bridge between traditional publishing and accessibility, with a focus on legibility and practicality, and avoids overly sterile design. Throughout my research, I found that those with dyslexia find sans-serif fonts easier to read in body copy. I also researched and utilized fonts such as Atkinson Hyperlegible.
I wanted the bookmarks to have a tactile quality, one that served not only to be aesthetically pleasing for those with vision but as an indicator for those without, where they left off in their book.
