Have you ever wanted to make your own journal or sketchbook but didn't know where, or how to start? While this class won't have you leaving with a standard codex book in your portfolio, we will study some simpler structures in preparation for more complicated book forms. We'll make simple folded and stitched books including the Maze Book, Accordion or Concertina Book, Envelope Book, Pamphlet Stitch book, Piano Hinge book and a brand new, never before shared instructions for a Post-It Note Book with a twist. We'll also discuss variations on these books, sources for archival supplies, and further resources on bookmaking.
