LIKAYBINDERY for Helvetica

" The Collection"
The very blandess of Helvetica H monoline form adorned with ornament miniature handmade books. Miniature books are metaphor of container. The closure of the book is unreal, perhaps created by its material, its decorative cover.

We make a 'Pocket' book





LIKAYBINDERY was asked by Living etc. magazine to run a workshop on eco-friendly theme. We had an idea of showing the group how to handmade a recycle paper 'pocket' book for collecting small objects and other keepsakes. The idea of the pocket (instead of notebook) came from huge amount of both-side-paper left in our studio, n of course there's no place to write.

The 'pocket' book is made by folding up to 10 or more recycle papers, various size, to a pocket, stack them together and bind them with 3-hole-binding. Then cover the spine with color tape.
