Fully Booked Ink on Paper : Design & Concepts for New Publications

Fully Booked : Ink on Paper is a showcase of innovative books and other print products at the vanguard of a new era for printed publications - one that is likely to be the most exciting in their entire history. This book is structured into five chapters that each represent a key role that print plays today : The Storyteller, The Showmaster, The Teacher, The Businessman, and The Collector. From personal projects with the smallest print runs to premium artist books or brand publications, the selection of work presented here celebrates the tactile experience. Featuring innovative printing and binding techniques as well as radical editorial and design concepts, this work explores the distinctiveness of design, mate-rials, workmanship, and production methods - and pushes their limits. Fully Booked : Ink on Paper includes work by groundbreaking designers and design studios, such as A Practice for Everyday Life, Coralie Bickford-Smith, Irma Boom, Deutsche & Japaner, John Gall, Joost Grootens, Julia Hasting, Heimann und Schwantes, Jung + Wenig, Konst & Teknik, Leftloft, Made Thought, Peter Mendelsund, Niessen & de Vries, Prill Vieceli Cremers, Raffinerie AG, and Studio Laucke Siebein. Its stunning range of visual examples is put into context by texts from Andrew Losowsky, books editor at The Huffington Post.
