InDesign Eco-presentation Book Development

We’re seeking a graphic designer experienced in Adobe Indesign to help us finish a presentation book we’ve created to showcase 7 different sustainable village models we’ve designed. This book is about 80% complete in Adobe InDesign and we’d like to find a Graphic Designer who would like easy but longterm non-profit experience. What is needed is someone to help us finish the book (5-10 hours a week of work for 4-6 weeks) and then maintain it with ongoing and minor updates (about 1-5 hours a month).

Task involved in this will be:

• Initial double checking all of the specifics of layout and alignment
• Initial editing and adding in photos and graphics
• Initial editing and formatting of new text
• On-going updating of the above as minor changes are made

Here are three examples of pages currently under development for this book. As you can see, the formatting and layout is pretty much complete. What we’d like is someone to spend a few hours really double checking the spacing and other specifics as you add in the text and graphics we’ll be sending you.

We’re seeking Graphic Artists (Photoshop, Corel Paintshop or others) to add realistic backdrops to our 3D renders of villages, homes, and rooms.

Here are a few examples of the kind of finished products we are seeking:

Earthbag Village Example: Multiple SketchUp Renders Combined with Real Landscape
