Fifty perspectives on the book as a designed object, compiled by Siri Lee Lindskrog and Amanda-Li Kollberg, the duo behind Studio Formal Settings: Developed from a curated selection of books from Hopscotch Reading Room—a conceptual bookstore and event space in Berlin—each text focuses on a single book and explores its visual and haptic qualities, from materials and layout to binding and typography. “Our goal is to understand the role and potential of books through a design lens—and to capture what they communicate through their physical form.”
