Create a Mexican book like no other: the perfect brief. Celebrating the gusto of Mexican wrestlers snorting hot salsas and fighting giant, brave chillies, the design and art direction reflect the spirit of the culinary. Colourful food is styled against colourful props and saturated colours are contrasted, all framed by directional red-blue-peach design. The typography is as bold, and illustrations are added to carry humour throughout. The cover is boldly illustrated, featuring a wrestler in a ring with a taco, while the edge is full of flair with a pattern stamped, making this a cookbook designed like no other.
