Another publication design class piece...had to make a menu for a fancy japanese restaurant. I've never been to a fancy japanese restaurant or a japanese restaurant in general so I was shooting blind. Did the whole thing in 6 hours so they are some mistakes, had to rush to get it to print ($30 oh my ******* god) and get to class. I could have done much better, personally. But I think I got an A so that's what counts..hahah

The right is the cover, middle is the back cover, left is a flap that folders under the cover


And this is the inside of the menu

To the left would be the inside of the front cover, middle is inside of back, right is inside of flap.

 

Nice nice. Looks pretty good. I am having a hard time reading the "Fancy" italicized text though. I like how the text looks like handwriting, but it isnt very easy on the eye, I think.

I criticize, but it is very good work! Keep it up Kevin.

 

I agree, the font is way too hard to read and I should have made it bigger so it wasn't so compressed looking, but in my rush I didn't think to go change it.

 

Lol.. thats ****** awesome man! Well done!!!!!!!!

 

Looks good man. Nice to see most of the wines are from Cali. haha

 

Hey Kevin, it looks great! I have just one thought, how hard would this be to read in low light or is that even a concern with this project?

 

damn man, you try selling that design to a real Japanese restaraunt haha, i bet you could easily do it.

 

That looks great Kevin! How long did it take you?

 

that menu is better than any I have ever seen in a Japanese restaurant. Only downside as you have acknowledged is the fancy italicized text but otherwise awesome job!

 

Thank man. Now my wife wants Japanese.

Looks awesome dude. I'd eat there

 

Thanks guys, appreciate it.

Tuff, we didn't have to consider lighting conditions, but when I printed it the text contrasted highly against the backgrounds (the dark gray boxes printed as black ), but it made it easier to read I guess.

Whitstng, I started last night at about 9, worked till 3. Woke up at 730 this morning and finished it at 1130am. So..a while, haha.

 

You spelled SAKE wrong. But overall its good stuff. And you got an A, so thats all that matters.

 

Saké is definitely spelled right...lopl

 

Very impressive, good work, But yes the font should be more user friendly..

 

Ohhh. Haha. I see it now. Its that damn font...lol.

 

I want some sushi so bad right now...... Seriously I will kill a bitch for some sushi

 

I had 2 spicy tuna rolls last night, and 2 unagi rolls last night.
I eat sushi probably alot more than I should. I think Im addicted to it.
