Dyslexia
Dyslexia is a complicated condition, people do not fully understand it as a disability and they pass it off as insignificant condition. In reality is a very difficult condition to work with on a daily basis. Trust me I have experience in this area, since I am dyslexic. People with dyslexia struggle with the basic reading, writing and speaking tasks and it can go as far as reality distortion. This editorial should be an accurate representation of what dyslexics see on a daily basis and not falsifying that fact to make it visually satisfying - the typography within the book will be distorted, playing about with the typography to give the viewer true insight into the dyslexics mind and what the world looks from their perspective. Dyslexia comes with benefit, you are able to see the world from a unique point of view but it also comes with its drawbacks with bullying. This editorial embraces dyslexia, and to educate people that don't recognise dyslexia as a natural disability. The editorial should give a new perspective and understanding to people that may not truly know what dyslexia looks like. This book is written in the first person perspective to give a unique experience to the viewer, to show that dyslexia does not mean you cannot write properly it is just difficult. I want this book to be equally on your coffee table at home and in schools or classrooms or even a business environment.
The condition affects all aspects of the person’s view, it affects the hand coordination and there speech and movement. Now that is a lot for a condition that just affects your reading ability as it is perceived. If you can’t process words correctly that also affects your writing your speaking and your movement, so overall I created an editorial written in the first perspective that would showed the elements of dyslexia in a new light, paying respect to the old vision of dyslexia with the front cover.
