the art & animation of hayao miyazaki

an artwork catalogue showcasing text and images about japanese animator hayao miyazaki. the colors and graphic elements used in the overall design draw on the significance of warm red tones in miyazaki’s films, while a repeating traditional japanese hexagonal motif symbolizes longevity and echoes the timeless quality of his work. the addition of the small totoro drawings along the hexagons at the start of every chapter is a nod to miyazaki’s playfulness and the inner child his films tap into.
