Short Cuts: Navigate Your Way Through Big Ideas is a book series offering an accessible introduction to complex topics. Each title presents 50 expert-written questions and answers, each paired with a full-page illustration that brings abstract ideas to life.
For Short Cuts: Maths, I created 50 illustrations that explore key mathematical ideas through clean visual language and bold composition. The focus is on clarity and structure – expressing logic, pattern, and abstraction through form, space, and repetition.
The book was printed in three spot colours – orange, yellow and blue. Working within this limited palette, I used layering and transparency to create depth and texture, resulting in a playful yet conceptually rich aesthetic.
