bookbinding
Andreas Ortag, Babsi Daum
the workshop will be held in english and german
you will bind your own book (or several if you are keen and work fast). for drawings, notes, as a diary. you can choose between a swiss paperback with an 8-page cardboard cover and a hardcover book in half-linen, both thread-stitched – we will have samples ready for you to look at.
in order to save time, we will bring all the material you need cut to size: two kinds of paper for the core, backing paper and cover cardboard in different colours, cardboard for the book covers, as well as needles, thread, glue and everything else that is needed on the way to the finished book. if you want, you can of course also use your own material. please note: all materials should run parallel to the spines. participants of the workshop will receive a tool checklist in advance.
