Excerpts from the Kickstarter:
Visual imagery and thoughtful design integrated within the text of the four Gospels for a beautiful reading experience.
When we look at bible design though, it has remained relatively the same. There have been few attempts to integrate imagery, typography, and layout design within the biblical text to engage with our rapidly growing visual culture. Similar to old master Renaissance artists, who looked at the Scriptures and created these beautiful pieces of art from them, we wanted to do the same - and asked ourselves, "What would that look like today?”
Alabaster aims to give the reader a fresh visual experience and heightened level of contemplation while reading this ancient text, that ultimately points to the beauty of God.
