: Re: Writing an image Utopia book Planning on writing a picture sci-fi book about Utopia. The book will not have a plot (story), sequence or any conclusion. It will have approximately 30 illustrations

There is obviously no black and white, right answer, but in general I would say the artistic communities would lean toward option 2 - sequential visual narrative. Readers want to be taken on a journey so an accidental narrative, whilst making sense to you would probably confuse a reader who is unfamiliar with the premise you are trying to relay.

You mention a photo book, well photo journalism has been rising in popularity for years, whereby photographers use imagery to tell a tail, with limited if any narrative. This would make a lovely book both for adults and children alike, maybe look at some of the below links for sequencing and layout ideas:

A photo book wedding album

A photo book travel album
