The journey from a flat printed sheet to a folded section, and from a stack of sections to a finished book, is truly fascinating. In just half a day, you will learn about the advantages and disadvantages of the most commonly used binding methods.
Everyone ideally wants a book that stays open beautifully, but achieving this requires the right adhesives and industrial binding techniques. Your choice of paper also plays a crucial role.
In this short course, you will learn key industry terms, enabling you to communicate confidently with bookbinders.
To bring these concepts to life, we will visit a printing house and a bindery on Monday, December 16, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
This short course is best taken alongside Anatomy of the Book and Prepress.
This short course is part of the one-year program Typography & Book, but it can also be taken independently.
It can be taken on its own or combined with Anatomy of the Book and Prepress.
Registration fee: €105.
Tiered discounts apply when combining multiple short courses within the same year.
