Isn’t this graphic design catalogue, designed by Rita Cruz Neves, gorgeous? She based in Lisbon, Portugal, and I’ve got to say that the history there is doing something good to her work. I love turn-of-the-century imagery, and this catalogue for the Museu Nacional de Arqueologia is just full of this type of romantic imagery.
But if you look at the details of this catalogue, which can be seen at Behance, you’ll see that she’s got an amazing eye for detail down to the most minute levels. The paper stock, the classic fonts, and the beautiful colors make you feel like you’re looking at an antique book that has somehow been protected from the ravages of time.
Rita’s style is enmeshed in the complexity of the finest line art, but modernized with a vibrancy of tones and bold colors that make you want to look close at every artistic nuance. Classic design at its finest!
