Northwest Know-how Beaches

Northwest Know-how Beaches is a pocket-sized travel book highlighting 34 beaches along the Washington and Oregon coasts. I led the art direction, created all illustrations, and conducted research to capture each location authentically. The design uses pastel colors and subtle texture to evoke a nostalgic, adventurous experience. The book was honored as a Staff Pick by the iconic Powell’s Books and is a Penguin Random House best seller.
