This binding is based on examples I spied in a borrowed copy of
Shereen LaPlatntz's Cover to Cover. I am particularly happy with the use of color. The covers are printed blue with a varnish on the interior, and 4C process on the outside. The image of the fruit (peaches?) is borrowed from Owen Jones'
A Grammar of Ornament. I have
this small version - who doesn't love a tiny
Grammar of Ornament?
