The Wonderful Wizard of Oz – Limited edition<\/strong>
Hugo Moura<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

2025 marks the 125th anniversary of the first edition of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank Baum, a story that has shaped several generations with its timeless values and narratives. Friendship, courage and self-knowledge continue to bring this children\u2019s classic to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To mark this milestone, I developed a limited edition that pays tribute to the tale, pairing it with a contemporary graphic reinterpretation and updating its visual identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project involved creating a new editorial layout and producing original illustrations of the main characters. They were drawn without facial features, an aesthetic choice that heightens expressiveness and stimulates the reader\u2019s imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book was produced as a hardcover, in the traditional green and black color palette, resulting in a graphic solution that respects the original world of the work while offering a contemporary reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proposal aims to make the reading experience current and relevant, even 125 years on, showing how a classic can be visually reinterpreted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an editorial project, this work combines literary heritage with an innovative design approach, creating a product that honors and renews one of the greatest tales of all time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
