Project title: Alfaiate Collection
Project details:
Graphic design of the “Alfaiate” book collection, made by designer and illustrator Frede Tizzot, for Arte & Letra. The book was printed with RISO and the cover was made by silk-screen printing on canvas, with manual binding. For this project, extensive research was carried out in order to make a special edition possible for the work of such important authors, using alternative forms of printing and finishing the books and maintaining the productivity and viability of the book within the publishing market. The cover was screen printed and assembled by hand, the core was printed with RISO and hand sewn. The entire process was carried out in the Graphic Laboratory of the publishing house Arte & Letra.
