Magazines and fanzines are booming, companies are starting publishing houses, and Paperblanks are winning hands and hearts. "Print is alive," the scene enthusiastically proclaims. But upon closer inspection, it becomes clear: people don't like sheets of paper; they love print objects. How does a flat sheet on a pallet transform into a desirable print product? We consulted experts, analyzed favorite pieces, explored designer dreams, and found that the journey from sheet to flipping through pages is diverse and fascinating. It must be considered from the very beginning, and along the way, there are just as many great opportunities and ideas as there are hurdles and pitfalls. Some things are not as expensive as one might think, and sometimes you need to think outside the box. To spare you that effort, Franziska Morlok and Miriam Waszelewski have systematically compiled the know-how of the world's best bookbinders, illustrated it clearly, and documented it photographically.
