Travelbook Reykjavik

The travelbook about Reykjavik, which I handed in for Editorial 1 at OCAD this semester. I was lucky to be able to lend pictures from some really nice Photographers!
Arni Trygvasson, Joby Catto, Ævar Guðmundsson, Ville Miettinen, Håkon Eikesdal - Thank you!

These are just a few examples of the book. All in all I have 19 spreads. The consept of the book is creating a different travel guide, with organic forms all the way through.

“An artist is someone who produces things 
that people don't need to have,
but that he - for some reason - 
thinks it would be a good idea to give them.”
Andy Warhole

Revolutionary quote by Vladimir Lenin from Maren R Gyllenhammar on Vimeo.

This is my life - Keeping Warm

Data visualisation A1 size,
how many layers I wear to keep me warm each day in november!
First pictures are of the illustrator made, and then the making of the handmade posters and the last three pictures are of the final handmade! The threads that goes out the circle are the days and they show how many layers I had on on that day!




Vitamin packaging - IN PROGRESS

These are the first boxes I made, sorry for the finishing but these are just sketches!
Im going to change the form of C and the D a little so they are standing a bit stadier. And some text is the wrong way, and somethings just needs to be tweaked a bit.

But please give me some feedback! :)
