Here is a book I made in my second year at uni about me and my twin sister. Ive already posted some pictures on this book in an earlier post….but here is some of me redoing it for my portfolio! I decided to change the front cover of it and improved the typography inside. These were only very small changes like kerning but I think it made a difference. Instead of a paper cover I printed on some book cloth which gave it a much nicer finish. This is the third time I have re-bound this book- the more I learnt the more I wanted to improve my book! Here are some pictures of re-binding my new book!
