OUGD404: Publication 02 Rationale

Studio Brief 02 requires the production of a book made up of a set of 10 double-page layouts, including an introduction and contents page.

With the freedom to produce a book informed by personal interest, I have decided to create a book that provides it's readers with an introduction to a select range of processes/finishes that can all be achieved at home using tools that for the most part can be found their. The processes I will be showcasing are:
  • Gold Foiling 
  • Paper Marbling
  • Pin Prick Embossing
  • Embroidering
It is my aim for this book to have an evidence of being hand-crafted and personally-made, finding the balance between style and content to show the process clearly and its results honestly. The book will be called 'How I Made This Book' to reinforce these notions.

Initial Thoughts and Ideas
  • Japanese Stab Stitch Binding
  • Range of materials/stocks
  • Combination of type and image
