Songs and Poems of John Dryden. Finished.

 

My biblionautic chums and friends.

'Songs and Poems of John Dryden'. 384mm x 277mm x 20mm.

An update, again.

For the last couple of days Bob has done his thing. This morning I was able to finish the 'Colour Field' doublures/doublers. So... I guess Songs is now finished, bar a little titivation here and there. The book will go back in to the press, like all good cheeses, it has to mature. Then it will be box making.

Thank you Bob!

The design concept is simple, the staffs give us the Songs and the letter the Poems. The rendering of the final design is simple, not complicated.

Sometimes, when looking at work (my own included before I start getting hate posts) and others I think 'Why?" Why so complicated? It is a if the maker has thrown every technique that have at it. Perhaps to bask in the glow of bling? or for others to go "wow look at all of that!"

Any way... Simple for Songs and Poems I think.

Please note.... there are other studios/binderies/ doing stuff, spelling and grammar. Please further note, the opinion of the author may change at any moment. This is due to having an open mind of sorts.
