The Man Who Walks On Air Publication


The Man Who Walks on Air is a reimagined feature article originally published in The New Yorker, now presented as a standalone magazine. This publication chronicles the career of tightrope walker Philippe Petit. Accompanying illustrations follow Petit’s journey, immersing the reader in the various locations where his story unfolds. The final touch is a sewn binding that mimics the tightrope itself, complemented by a blue color palette carried throughout the booklet.
