05 BOOKS: A BOOK ON BOOKS, 11/22 What happens when you leave a designer in a reading room with a xerox printer? Books: A Book on Books. Compiled from over 100 source texts, zines, books and more, replicated and manipulated on the scanbed. This publication plays on the physical sensation of flipping though research materials; the whimsy and graphicality of it all.

A simplistic approach to design where the layout lends itself to the nature of a free, black and white xerox copy machine in the lobby of a reading room. Books: A Book on Books is an investigation of anti-modernity. Resistance to book design using a computer screen. Celebration of the return to the archaic. 


8.5” x 11”. 125 pages. Edition 1/1.
