The art direction for this project left no room for chance. A deep dive into late 19th-century editorial design served as the foundation, exploring typefaces, layout methodologies, and other nuanced elements of that era. A standout detail is the illustration of the main character, "Dr. Marinvahos." This artwork, crafted in vector format, perfectly captures the engraving style, epitomizing the spirit of the historical period.
