Rebinding
My Favorites
Cover Design - Bookbinding - For The Love of Design
Over the past few years, I have developed the “I can totally make that myself” gene. Ranging from sewing, resin, woodworking and now to bookbinding. I am inspired by other makers that I come across through social media and when I saw someone rebinding her library to match the Penguin Clothbound Classic style I knew this was my next side project.
This has reenergized my love of reading and creating purely for the joy of making something beautiful. It has allowed me to master the skill of book binding and designing within a predetermined system. Using the Penguin Clothbound Classic collection as inspiration for my design rules, I have set out to rebind my entire personal collection. Looking to the stories for inspiration with imagery and colors my books have slowly been transformed into colorful works of art that bring me joy every time I pass them on the shelf.
