After Island

Photography | Long-hei Chan
Publishing | Browine Publishing

After Island, a photobook by Hong Kong-based independent photographer Long-hei Chan, explores themes of memory, place, and personal reflection. Featuring black-and-white images captured on a specific island, the work reflects the photographer’s intuition and his thoughts and feelings during this period, highlighting his connection to the landscapes and objects he encountered.

The cover conveys an understated elegance, hinting at the introspective nature of the work within. Debossed on the cover is an outlined island graphic, a stylised representation of the island’s topography, alongside the book’s title set in a custom-designed typeface—a unique and personal touch.

The minimalist and deliberate layout emphasises the photographs, presented as full-page bleeds that command attention. Generous margins provide breathing room, encouraging contemplation and reflection.
