The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum

The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum catalog has a nice, traditional layout. There is a single column of type for the main text which remains constant until the end, where it splits into 2-3 columns for the chronology, index, and bibliography. Margins and grids are fairly constant as well. There are maybe just two photos in the entire book which are flush with the page. O'Keeffe's classic paintings are a burst of color and excitement against the tame typography and layout. There's even an added surprise of some pages folding out to allow more real estate for larger artworks.
