Black Futures
A book design project by Morcos Key for the anthology edited by Kimberly Drew and Jenna Wortham, organising over 100 contributors' work through non-linear, index-driven navigation.
About
The design for Black Futures serves a wide-ranging anthology of artwork, essays, poetry and interviews from Black creatives, structured to be accessed in multiple ways rather than read sequentially. Physical hyperlinks and indices connect disparate entries across the volume, reflecting the book's collaborative, non-hierarchical approach to its subject matter. Published by One World at Random House under editor Chris Jackson.
Classification
The page describes a book design project rather than a retail typeface, making precise typographic classification difficult. Categorised as display/editorial based on its use in a large-format, visually driven publication context.
