Codex de Manjares is the regional guide to Mexican Gastronomy. It's a tool for people that are deeply interested in learning more about Mexican culture. Filled with whimsical hand-rendered typography and illustrations, this map and website act as a bridge to connect people to the diverse cuisines found in Mexico and the history behind them.
Designed under the instruction of Danielle Gagliano at the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design.
