Pairs and opposites

My former post showed typographic sketches and this post shows what I was sketching for.

This book is a co-production of all the students in the second year of our graphic design department. We were all given a letter from the alphabet and had to think up pairs and opposites in the Dutch language starting with that letter. We were each given a spread in the book and we were supposed to layout the pages with these words. Of course it had to be obvious which were the pairs and which were the opposites.

I was given the letter S and I had by far the biggest amount of pairs and opposites. That meant a lot of sketching, with a lot of words... The first two photos show my spread in the book. Our teacher designed the cover and the title page. The book was actually printed in the school's printshop.
