Abstracting the concept of a map, The Traditional Italian Dinner Party outlines the courses of a classic Italian dinner. The top identifies the constants of the dinner, while the path through the courses identifies examples of dishes that would be found in each. The typography of the map is derived from vintage Italian signage and packaging and is paired with cartoonish, yet realistic illustrations of the foods and beverages. These two elements are overlayed over a treated photo of an Italian dinner in the 1950s.
