Abstract
Luojia Xinxin is a freshman handbook which provides the most
comprehensive, authoritative and practical information for every new
undergraduate student in Wuhan University. It has been published
annually since 2015 and as the design director of Luojia Studio in
2017, I was responsible for the whole preocess of the book.
Content Structure
Luojia Xinin is composed of three parts. They are “Life in Campus”,
“Introduction of School-Level Organizations & Clubs” and
“Information of Departments”. Contents are all written by students,
for instance, the first part is written by Student Union and the
second part is written by corresponding organizations.
The amount of pages of the book is 136. Each student
will get the customized version of the book that the third part only
contains the department or school that the student has enrolled in.
However, we would design all the contents of 33 departments in our
university, therefore the total amount of pages is over 300.
My Role
I decided the overall style of the book, designed the cover and the
layout of the contents and directed the rest of the design. I was
also responsible to contact with those who wrote the content.
