On wednesday we looked at book binding. We began by making a Circle Accordian, this was a simple design but it was really important to make the folds and cuts completely accurate or the overall effect is ruined. I used some of my letterpress as a front cover which created an interesting abstract effect.
After the Circle Accordian I tried Japanese binding. This book had a more substantial look and had many more variations to make it more interesting. Again it was important to make sure the measurements were accurate as even small mistakes show up easily.
