<p>&#8220;Ώστε είσαι βιβλιοδέτης λοιπόν, πολύ ενδιαφέρον! Αν ήθελα δηλαδή να δέσω ένα βιβλίο πόσο θα κόστιζε?&#8221;<br /> Αυτή είναι η πραγματικά απίθανη ερώτηση που με μαθηματική και απαρέγκλιτη ακρίβεια με περιμένει όποτε τύχει να εξηγήσω με τι ασχολούμαι. Και είναι απίθανη διότι απλούστατα δεν υπάρχει σαφής απάντηση. Αναγκάζομαι λοιπόν και γω να περιοριστώ σε ένα &#8220;εξαρτάται&#8230;&#8221; οπότε ο συνομιλητής μου συνειδητοποιεί απογοητευμένος το μακροσκελές του πράγματος και άλλαζει βεβαίως θέμα.</p>
<p>Υπάρχει μια φράση στα αγγλικά: &#8220;Educate your customers&#8221;. Εάν έπρεπε να το αποδώσω ελεύθερα αφαιρώντας την αυστηρότητα που φαινομενικά την διακρίνει θα ήταν &#8220;Γνώρισε καλύτερα την τέχνη σου στους ανθρώπους που την αναζητούν&#8221;. Όποιος γνωρίζει πώς και γιατί κάνει ό,τι κάνει ο τεχνίτης κατανοεί την αξία του αντικειμένου που παίρνει τέλος στα χέρια του.<br /> Σε μια προσπάθεια λοιπόν ξορκισμού αυτού του αιώνιου ερωτήματος που ταλανίζει το νου των βιβλιοδετών (πλάι στα δευτερεύοντα &#8220;ποιοί είμαστε; Πού πάμε;&#8221; και άλλα παρόμοια) θα μοιραστώ μαζί σας τις παραμέτρους της απαντήσεως.</p>
<p>Παρεκτός και αν κανείς ξέρει ακριβώς τι θέλει είναι προτιμότερο να ρωτάει &#8220;τι καθορίζει το κόστος&#8221;. Η βιβλιοδεσία, όπως κάθε έργο των χεριών, ΔΕΝ έχει στάνταρ κόστος. Και ο λόγος είναι γιατί εξαρτάται από αμέτρητους παράγοντες. Ποιά είναι η αξία του βιβλίου? Χρειάζεται συντήρηση? Τι τύπος βιβλιοδεσίας θα εφαρμοστεί? Τι υλικά θα χρησιμοποιηθούν? Θα υπάρχει διακόσμηση και αν ναι πόση? Τι χρόνο έχω στη διαθεσή μου? Αυτά είναι μόνο μερικά από όσα περνάνε εκείνη τη στιγμή στο μυαλό του βιβλιοδέτη. Εάν είστε σε θέση να τα προσδιορίσετε τότε εύκολα θα σας ανακοινωθεί ένα κόστος.</p>
<p>Αλλά ας δούμε και αντίστροφα το θέμα&#8230; Εάν πείτε, όπως κάνουν μερικοί εξαρχής και μας λύνουν τα χέρια, ότι &#8220;θέλω να διαθέσω το Χ ποσό&#8221; τότε αμέσως θα σας εξηγηθούν οι επιλογές που αντιστοιχούν σε αυτό. Απο κεί και πέρα τίθεται ζήτημα τι πιστεύει ο καθένας πως αντιστοιχεί στο ποσό που ανέφερε. Τα χειροποίητα κεφαλάρια μπορεί, ανάλογως το σχέδιο, να απαιτήσουν πολλές ώρες από την δουλειά ενός βιβλιοδέτη. Είναι μια μικρή λεπτομέρεια μεγάλης ομορφιάς αλλά όπως γίνεται κατανοητό είναι αδύνατον μια τέτοια επιλογή να συμπεριλαμβάνεται σε μια βιβλιοδεσία των 50 ευρώ&#8230;</p>
<p>Και τέλoσπάντων, μιας και ανέφερα κάποιο χρόνο, φτάνουμε στο πιό σημαντικό&#8230; Είναι συχνή η περίπτωση ανθρώπων που σαν ακούσουν μια τιμή ρωτάνε &#8220;Δηλαδή πόσο σου παίρνει να το φτιάξεις;&#8221;. <strong>Δεν-έχει-σημασία</strong>. Και είναι απλό γιατί δεν έχει: διότι μπορεί να χρειάζονται λίγα λεπτά να πατηθεί ένας τίτλος με αληθινό χρυσάφι αλλά θέλει χρόνια για να φτάσει ο βιβλιοδέτης να το κάνει σε λίγα λεπτά. Αυτό πληρώνει κανείς όταν αγοράζει κάτι φτιαγμένο στο χέρι. Την ικανότητα του τεχνίτη.</p>
<p>Πέρα από την ικανότητα ωστόσο υπάρχει και κάτι ακόμη που διαθέτει το ξέχωρο μεριδιό του στην τιμή και συνήθως το προσπερνάει ο κόσμος- Η έμπνευση.  Χρειάστηκε αυτό που σας παραδόθηκε έμπνευση για την δημιουργία του; Το να παραχθεί κάτι καλαίσθητο κατά παραγγελία είναι -πιστέψτε με- δύσκολο. Μια ιδέα που υλοποιείται σε μερικές μέρες μπορεί να δουλεύεται επί μήνες στο μυαλό του δημιουργού&#8230; Πώς κοστολογεί κανείς κάτι τέτοιο; Ένας ικανός βιβλιοδέτης είναι σε θέση να κατασκευάσει μια βιβλιοδεσία η οποία θα διαρκέσει αιώνες. Δεν απαιτείται έμπνευση για κάτι τέτοιο μα μεγάλη γνώση, εμπειρία και ικανότητα. Όλα αυτά όμως, που έχουν τεράστια αξία από μόνα τους, οδηγούν σε τεχνική αρτιότητα και όχι σε αισθητική (με την έννοια του έργου τέχνης). Εάν επιθυμεί κανείς ένα δημιουργικό αποτέλεσμα πρέπει να κατανοήσει πως είναι λογικό το καλοφτιαγμένο και καλαίσθητο να χρεώνεται παραπάνω από το απλώς καλοφτιαγμένο.</p>
<p>Αυτά είχα να μοιραστώ πάνω στο δαιδαλώδες ζήτημα του κόστους. Η αλήθεια είναι πως ο κάθε βιβλιοδέτης έχει πάνω κάτω ένα &#8220;τιμοκατάλογο&#8221; τον οποίο θα σας πει αλλά επί της ουσίας το θέμα τιμή δεν είναι ποτέ χαραγμένο σε πέτρα. Συζητήστε μαζί του τι θέλετε. Προσθέτοντας ή αφαιρώντας  πράγματα από την βιβλιοδεσία σας αυξομειώνετε ανάλογα και το κόστος της.<br /> Ως τελευταίο θα θελα να αναφέρω πως όσα έγραψα είναι καλό να μας συντροφεύουν σα σκέψεις όχι μόνο περνώντας το κατώφλι ενός βιβλιοδετείου αλλά και οποιουδήποτε εργαστηρίου γενικότερα.<br /> <a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/sangorski-sutcliffe.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1486" alt="Sangorski &amp; Sutcliffe" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/sangorski-sutcliffe.jpg?w=430&#038;h=328" width="430" height="328" /></a>Τεχνική αρτιότητα και υψηλή αισθητική από το παρελθόν και τους Sangorski and Sutcliffe.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>No, really, what is a book? Is it a functional container of information? Of course not&#8230; because then how is it different from an e-reader?<br />
It would be pointless to present you with a list of famous quotes about the incredible thing a book is. However most of the time our view is so fixed inside the book and its content that we forget to praise the very form itself, to use it as means of expression. And I&#8217;m not talking about its appearance but rather about the use of the whole book and the symbolism it carries as a base material for something completely different. And I&#8217;ve found that Guy Laramee has a most innovative point of view on this matter.</p>
<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/guy-7.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1464" alt="guy-7" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/guy-7.jpg?w=442&#038;h=333" width="442" height="333" /></a>Although I&#8217;m fairly certain most of you have stumbled on his work here and there it was inevitable that I would devote a post about it.<br />
Guy Laramee is kind of an &#8220;artist universalis&#8221;. The biography at his <a href="http://www.guylaramee.com/">official site</a> shows an impressive list of art fields in which he has been active, some 30 years now. Amongst his works can be found the book sculptures I share with you today.</p>
<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/16_petras.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1466" alt="16_petras" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/16_petras.jpg?w=248&#038;h=309" width="248" height="309" /></a><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/guy-laramee-sculpture4.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1468" alt="Guy-Laramee-sculpture4" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/guy-laramee-sculpture4.jpg?w=222&#038;h=328" width="222" height="328" /></a></p>
<p>I find the idea of using books to carve landscapes exquisite. A book -be it dictionary,literature or even a math book- takes you somewhere, whether that is a space where actions of logic happen, the mental reflection of a real location or just the abstract formation of an imaginary place. However thinking of using books to carve landscapes is a long way from actually doing it and that&#8217;s why the realization of it by Guy is even more so remarkable.</p>
<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/guy-5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1470" alt="guy-5" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/guy-5.jpg?w=437&#038;h=294" width="437" height="294" /></a>By his own word; &#8221; I carve landscapes out of books and I paint romantic landscapes. Mountains of disused knowledge return to what they really are: mountains. They erode a bit more and they become hills. Then they flatten and become fields where apparently nothing is happening. Piles of obsolete encyclopedias return to that which does not need to say anything, that which simply IS.&#8221;</p>
<p>By sacrificing the book&#8217;s functionality Guy manages to enlarge its meaning. The form of a book, the material aspect of it, is no longer simply a conveyer of ideas but stands forth and becomes the idea itself through transformation.<br />
In the end one could say these are no less books than any other, if we are interested in <i><b>what a book is</b></i> and not just what it&#8217;s used for.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#000000;">Yet another tool to share with you all, brass fillet wheels. </span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;">The wheels are of 1 and 2 mm thickness and a combination wheel of 1+1mm which has edges cut in angle for frame tooling. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/roller-3.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1435" alt="roller 3" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/roller-3.jpg?w=243&#038;h=165" width="243" height="165" /></a>You can acquire them in two ways;<br />
A)As an economy set which includes all 3 wheels and a single deluxe handle (see pic) with fork <strong><span style="color:#003300;">at 200 euros</span></strong><br />
B)Individual wheel with accompanying simple white handle and fork <span style="color:#003300;"><strong>at 100 euros each</strong></span> (+10 euros if you&#8217;d like the deluxe handle)</span></p>

I&#8217;d like to introduce you the Polishing brass &#8230;<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.wordpress.com/2013/01/10/polishing-brass-tool-%ce%bb%ce%b1%ce%bc%cf%80%ce%bf%cf%8d%ce%b3%ce%b9%ce%bf-%ce%b2%ce%b9%ce%b2%ce%bb%ce%b9%ce%bf%ce%b4%ce%b5%cf%83%ce%af%ce%b1%cf%82/">Continue reading &#187;</a></p><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=koutsipetsidis.wordpress.com&#038;blog=18794085&#038;post=1361&#038;subd=koutsipetsidis&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#000000;">Hi everyone and best wishes for 2013!</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;">New year &#8211; new tool! I&#8217;d like to introduce you the Polishing brass tool.<br />
<a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/polishing-brass-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1362" alt="Polishing brass 1" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/polishing-brass-1.jpg?w=452&#038;h=305" width="452" height="305" /></a>Polishing tools, either of this type or the cylindrical ones, have been of a long service in the binderies. They are used in crushing the grain of leather if a smooth surface is desired, polishing, surface gilding, creating patinas and more.</span></p>
<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/polishing-brass-21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1370" alt="Polishing brass 2" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/polishing-brass-21.jpg?w=229&#038;h=151" width="229" height="151" /></a><span style="color:#000000;">This tool has been traditionally made from cast iron for a number of reasons, a couple of which are easier manufacturing and lower cost. However iron/steel has been often noted to stain leather.</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;">Creating a cast brass tool of this volume has been a huge undertaking as it requires the precision methods used in a small ring while it has the mass of a hundred.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">The tool offered to you here draws its form from the elements found in various classic depictions. While many modern versions simply have a slightly curved surface this Polishing brass features both a flat surface <span style="text-decoration:underline;">and</span> a curved end. Another special characteristic is the also curved shaft which greatly facilitates use.</span></p>
<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/polishing-brass-long-handle1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1385" alt="Polishing brass - Long handle" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/polishing-brass-long-handle1.jpg?w=239&#038;h=150" width="239" height="150" /></a><span style="color:#000000;">The Polishing brass tool offers two options regarding its handle;</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;">1)The standard long (45cm) handle and</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;">2) the maker&#8217;s recommendation- the short handle, which I&#8217;ve found quite comfortable to work with.</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;">Both handles are made from quality handturned wood that is treated and polished.</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;"><br />
<span style="color:#003300;"><strong>The price of the Polishing brass tool is 200euro.<br />
<span style="color:#000000;">Visit the tool page at the top for more brass handtools.</span></strong></span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#003300;">NOTE- The Bookbinding Finishing Multitool (BFM) is available again, this time in 3 sets! Visit the tool page!</span></strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>These past months, from August till now, have been a total and relentless strain on so many levels, so I couldn&#8217;t help but chuckle when I was asked to bind a book with the crucifixion of Christ as the main theme.<br />
<a href="http://koutsipetsidis.wordpress.com/2012/12/07/the-last-temptation-%ce%bf-%cf%84%ce%b5%ce%bb%ce%b5%cf%85%cf%84%ce%b1%ce%af%ce%bf%cf%82-%cf%80%ce%b5%ce%b9%cf%81%ce%b1%cf%83%ce%bc%cf%8c%cf%82/kaz-1/" rel="attachment wp-att-1333"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1333" alt="Kaz. 1" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/kaz-1.jpg?w=529&#038;h=358" height="358" width="529" /></a>Ο τελευταίος πειρασμός του Νίκου Καζαντζάκη, δερματόδετη βιβλιοδεσία τύπου περαστό. Δέρμα βαμμένο στο χέρι και χειροποίητα κεφαλάρια ραμμένα με μεταξωτή κλωστή. Γράμματα χρυσωμένα με φύλλο 22 καρατίων.</p>
<p>The last temptation by Nikos Kazantzakis (best known for his novel &#8220;Zorba the GreeK&#8221;) was considered so radical that it was included in Vatican&#8217;s Index of Prohibited books and lead to his condemnation by the Greek church.<br />
The story in a nutshell is that when Christ is on the cross he is visited by a spirit who says that God is pleased and wants him to be happy. Jesus is left to live a normal life blissful as any ordinary person. Or so he thinks, since it was all just a vision, a lie, the last temptation made by the devil. The book gives emphasis to the human side of Christ portraying him as a passionate person who is in doubt and struggling to understand.<br />
The book was also filmed by Martin Scorsese with Willem Dafoe in the main role.</p>
<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.wordpress.com/2012/12/07/the-last-temptation-%ce%bf-%cf%84%ce%b5%ce%bb%ce%b5%cf%85%cf%84%ce%b1%ce%af%ce%bf%cf%82-%cf%80%ce%b5%ce%b9%cf%81%ce%b1%cf%83%ce%bc%cf%8c%cf%82/kaz-2/" rel="attachment wp-att-1338"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1338" alt="Kaz. 2" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/kaz-2.jpg?w=272&#038;h=215" height="215" width="272" /></a>As is more often than not the case lately the initial concept was quite different. I was thinking of a complex scene including a lot of onlay work showing the 3 phases of the story in a glance by implying a full circle. However Kazantzakis is praised for his frugal writing so I opted for something simpler and more symbolic. Having this in mind and the fact that the client was fond of my binding for Eliot I made the specific design. I feel it reflects the story strongly while following the spirit of Kazantzakis&#8217; writing style.<br />
The endleaves are JHS machine assisted paper from Hewitt. I made some shiny headbands from silk thread and used 22karat gold in tooling the author&#8217;s name and title. I used an airbrush to color the leather and I must say, I feel it&#8217;s growing on me!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Almost everyone that has seen my work from time to time liked <a href="http://koutsipetsidis.wordpress.com/2011/01/14/waves-on-books-%CE%BA%CF%8D%CE%BC%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B1-%CF%83%CE%B5-%CE%B2%CE%B9%CE%B2%CE%BB%CE%AF%CE%B1/" target="_blank">a particular binding</a> I made a while ago. Although it was a rather simple design it looks nice even to people with completely different tastes, to the point I sometimes think it works like those &#8220;mesmerizing&#8221; whirls used in old shows or movies.<a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/odysseas-elytis.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1318" title="Odysseas Elytis" alt="" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/odysseas-elytis.jpg?w=529&#038;h=387" height="387" width="529" /></a>Όδυσσεας Ελύτης, Ποίηση. Δερματόδετη βιβλιοδεσία με δέρμα βαμμένο στο χέρι και δερμάτινα κεφαλάρια.</p>
<p>I was recently contacted by someone who wanted to bind a book with poems from Odysseas Elytis, a Greek poet presented with the Nobel prize in 1979, as a gift for a retiring colleague. She asked for something more or less similar to the binding I did for Kavvadias.<br />
In general I prefer to experiment with new designs but since it was the client&#8217;s request and I was under a lot of pressure regarding time I decided to go for a happy medium solution. I slightly changed the design by adding a few details thus keeping the desired similarity while avoiding the feeling I did the same binding twice. As is my habit I also indulged myself in tooling a quirky title.<br />
The binding was completed the very day it would be presented as a gift to the receiver. Being in a hurry I forgot to take a picture of the interior which has vivid red endleaves and red leather endbands tooled with golden stripes.<br />
Got to love some contrast!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/typeholder.jpg"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-1266" title="Typeholder" alt="" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/typeholder.jpg?w=465&#038;h=312" width="465" height="312" /></a><span style="color:#000000;">There are many times during finishing where a typeholder for single type pieces comes much handier than the standard sized ones used for whole words. For example when a single letter hasn&#8217;t been tooled as clearly as the rest and needs to be retooled, in certain decorations where the occasion calls for tooling letters individually and especially when the title is arranged vertically on the spine.</span></p>
<p><a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/typeholder-1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1267" title="Typeholder 1" alt="" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/typeholder-1.jpg?w=241&#038;h=179" width="241" height="179" /></a> <span style="color:#000000;">In such cases this kind of typeholder allows greater control -being lighter and smaller- and better visibility.</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;"> The typeholder offered here is made out of solid cast brass. The upper sides, the ones a binder sees while tooling, form a rounded corner which by the end of the tool declines as much as possible to further enhance line of sight.</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;"> The moving part incorporated in the design enables this typeholder to receive a wide range of type sizes from really small (f.e. 6) to big ones (f.e. 36) and holds the type down firmly with a twist of the screw.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#003300;"><strong>The price of the typeholder is 130euro</strong></span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;">Payment can be received through Paypal.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It must have been a year back when I was in a big central bookshop looking around and my eyes got pinned at a certain book spine dominated by the words &#8220;Waste Land&#8221;. The actual title was &#8220;T.S. Eliot The Waste Land a facsimile and transcript of the original drafts&#8221;, but all I could see was &#8220;Wasteland&#8221;. This word has always held a sway over me and its meaning, the diverse and complex idea of what a wasteland is both literally and metaphorically, has perplexed my mind for as long as I can remember myself. So at the instant I felt it was somewhat of a calling, I had to bind this.<br />
<a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/eliot-the-waste-land.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1243" title="Eliot - The Waste Land" alt="" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/eliot-the-waste-land.jpg?w=529&#038;h=329" width="529" height="329" /></a>The book was soon after laying unbound at a desk in my workspace but as other more pressing matters kept piling on the schedule months passed with Eliot waiting stoically for his turn. During that time I would read poems from the book every now and then and that&#8217;s when the concept of the final design struck me. The initial thought was a much more classic design, I wanted to try a new decorative motive for quite a while and it sounded nice for the Wasteland. But after reading a specific poem a completely different idea started to form; the idea of a tree blossoming letters and words that wither and fly away as the land becomes barren.<br />
<a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/eliot-tree.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1244" title="Eliot - Tree" alt="" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/eliot-tree.jpg?w=529&#038;h=254" width="529" height="254" /></a>I wanted everything to be special so it took quite a while for the binding to reach completion since the beginning of work.<br />
The color of the binding had to be subtle and fitting but most importantly it had to be <em>colors</em> rather than<em> color.</em> I&#8217;m not much of a painter so I remembered the amazing results that can be achieved using an airbrush, especially the blending of the colors used, and I gave it a go. I was not disappointed. A multitoned surface was produced ranging within the spectrum of autumn colors.<br />
The earth cracks, wind and tree branches were achieved using extensive blind tooling and 15 leather onlays form the tree. The doublures and endpapers are made with a remarkable handmade Nepalese waxed paper (you can make a junkie out of its smell by the way, it&#8217;s almost like a scent candle once you open the book). Headband and endband are handmade of silk thread. The letters were tooled using 22 carat gold.<br />
<a href="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/eliot-endpapers-and-headbands.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1246" title="Eliot - Endpapers and Headbands" alt="" src="http://koutsipetsidis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/eliot-endpapers-and-headbands.jpg?w=529&#038;h=214" width="529" height="214" /></a>Last but not least I believe the title should play an integral role in a design binding (I&#8217;ll be coming back with a post devoted partially to this matter). That&#8217;s why I choose to make it a key part of the design whenever I have the chance. It&#8217;s not just there to convey information, it&#8217;s not just a sum up. It&#8217;s there to puzzle and  intrigue, to remind and provoke, to make us feel. It&#8217;s the book reaching out to call us. Inviting us to its story. That was my purpose in creating this binding the way I did. To extend that calling and invitation.</p>
<p><span style="color:#003300;"><em><strong>The binding is available for 300 euro.<br />
</strong></em></span><br />
Note that all the decoration was done using my <a href="http://koutsipetsidis.wordpress.com/2012/03/07/brass-stylus-tools-%CE%B3%CF%81%CE%B1%CF%86%CE%AF%CE%B4%CE%B5%CF%82-%CE%B2%CE%B9%CE%B2%CE%BB%CE%B9%CE%BF%CE%B4%CE%B5%CF%83%CE%AF%CE%B1%CF%82-%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%8C-%CE%BC%CF%80%CF%81%CE%BF%CF%8D%CF%84/" target="_blank">stylus tool set</a> and a single typeholder that will be soon made available.<br />
Till next time!</p>
