Join us over a full weekend to explore the codex book form, making three different versions to take home. Beginning with the simple single-section, soft-cover sewn pamphlet book, we will progress to a dos-à-dos, and then to a hard-back, multi-section case binding, suitable for notes, sketches and creative writing. Each form builds on techniques from the last.By the end of the two days, you leave with your own set of unique books and an understanding of the different stages and technical processes involved in making a book by hand from scratch.
