In this introductory class we will explore form, shape, and motion. Starting with simple modular pop-out structures, leading up to a multi signature hard covered book, you will receive a solid foundation of skills that you can apply to more complex binding structures.
Although this class focuses on the form of the book rather than the content within, we devote a good amount of class time discussing the creative process and the importance of having a sketchbook on you for daily sketching practice.
Materials Fee covers materials and consumables aquired and prepared for class projects.
