You open up the cover of the 2017 Brookfield Central Legend and you’re asked a fundamental question on the front endsheet. “What defines you?” The rest of the page is filled with answers to that question from dozens of Brookfield Central students, a fitting intro to the book’s theme of “Definitions.” On the book’s opening spread, the copy by editor Riley Swart further explains that “Everyone has something quirky or interesting about them. It’s time to really get to know one another. It’s time to share what defines us.” The theme word is styled on the cover like a dictionary definition, and that same style and combo of fonts is used well on headlines throughout the rest of the chronological book. The division pages also stand out, with the seasons printed in huge block letters and interesting dominant photos.
