In The Homesick recipe, we used organic Half-Panama Cotton as material for Digital Fabric Printing. The thickness of the fabric is 300 gsm. We selected the Japanese binding to connect each page of illustration and recipe.​​​​​​​
在食譜的設計上,我們奉行極簡主義,設計上注入木系支架和偏向選用柔和色調布料。製作團隊相信食材大多取於自然,所以我們把支架變作木來顯示原始性,使整個作品顯得更為立體,布加上木材可以保持簡約自然的感覺,可讓 The Homesick recipe放在廚房中使用。同時,布容易清洗,可輕易處理油污。

Design: We pursue minimalism, inject a wooden stand and prefer using soft-toned fabrics. The combination of fabric and wood maintain nature and simplicity. As we know, most of the ingredients are taken from nature; the wooden stand could highlight originality. At the same time, the fabric is easy to clean with food stains.




在排版設計上, The “Home- ”sick” recipe”模仿了舊式香港日曆的外貌,讓移英港人感受到家的感覺。製作團隊使用了襯線體- 思源宋體 (Source Han Serif)作為字體,其易讀性好,而且文字優雅,配合極簡主義。

Typography: The Homesick recipe referenced the appearance of old Hong Kong calendars. It makes the immigrants feel at home. Regarding the typeface, the team used Source Han Serif, which is easy to read and elegant and matched minimalism.




在食譜的插畫上,我們用了童稚的畫風,柔和的色彩配搭。書中為你奉上一星期七天食譜,繪本都附上食物成品和食材的插畫。

Graphic:  In  The Homesick recipe, we used a childish style and soft-toned colours.  The Homesick recipe provides readers with seven-day recipes with illustrations of different finished cuisines and ingredients.
近年,大量港人移民到英國。在港人展開新生活,入鄉隨俗時,難免想念家鄉的美食,因此希望他們可在家中參考食譜自行烹調美食,一解相思之苦。

In recent years, a significant number of Hong Kongers have immigrated to the United Kingdom. When they start a new life in Rome as the Romans do, they will inevitably miss the food in their hometown - Hong Kong. Therefore, hopefully, they can handle homesickness by cooking their food referenced to  The Homesick recipe.
