When approaching the Renaissance pages, I was struck by the comments of the industry panel. We were told to be very considerate of how our page counts for each era worked, and how the layouts looked, to make sure the book doesn't get predictable and dull.
Because of this, I realised there was more I could do to make a double page spread of Renaissance work interesting than I could for Romanticism (which was in the original plan). I decided then, to dedicate the double page spread to Renaissance instead, to shake up the predictable layouts a bit.
I hope this will make the book more compelling and engaging - something that is crucial for younger audiences, like ours, as they are easily distracted or bored.
