The Undesirables

It is a reality that we all share our homes with others— people and pets, but also a large number of creatures that have taken up residence without invitation, such as mice, cockroaches, spiders, flies, and so on.

—Paul Robeson Galleries

Design Description
Based on the theme of the exhibition, a grungy style of rough overlay backgrounds was used throughout the catalog along with an illustrated series of flies on the cover. A gloss clear foil-stamping was used on the cover title typography to give the book some glitz to contrast with the grunge.
