The most difficult challenge was to avoid what I deemed to be the expected photographic, nonfiction to unusual subject matter. My parameters were drawn by selecting Guy Billout to illustrate this book. He set the tone by making the author’s relationship to his tower a metaphysical experience. I let his palette and message guide me to my solution—the midnight background tones lead the eye deeper into the piece; my use of the right-hand vertical panel hinting at the building’s siding further increase the depth. I put a touch of moonlight into the color of the type to complete the effect.
