Studio Brief 01 - Type in context - Binding

This publication relies on its interactive way of reading. The pages ideally should open flat or enough to for the reader to use the pages effectively.

For printing purposes and construction, this publication has been put into signatures of four. To bind these together there are a few ways of binding that can accommodate to the content. 

The binding method has been informed by research and observing other publications with similar content. 

Coptic Stitch 

Coptic binding in connection with the interaction and content seems the most effective method. The pages open flat allowing the reader to be fully immersed in the lettering and also use the pages to intended potential. 



























Errors 

There are quite a few challenges that come along with binding. With more practice the outcome could be a lot more refined. 

In terms of actually figuring out the construction of the book, a few challenges were presented. One being the stock choice and the flexbility of connection the pages and sewing through them. 


Considering the context of production and the desire to mass produce this product on a large scale.
