Publication
Bound Survey
Fall 2024

In this publication, duality is both structure and story, reflecting the layered experience of reading a book as both object and subject. My approach bridges two modes of engagement: the analytical and the experiential. On one side, the formal survey dissects typographic principles, using Detail in Typography as a foundation, allowing me to map and distill essential qualities across all five books. On the other side, the informal survey invites readers into a raw, immersive experience—capturing the pulse of page-turning through distorted panorama frames that hold a fleeting, almost cinematic rhythm.

Through this structure, I aim to explore the subtleties of design composition, where form, function, and aesthetic perception intertwine. This project goes beyond simply examining books—it invites the audience to feel the intensity of rapid visual engagement in contrast to the depth of detailed analysis. It’s not just a book but an invitation to experience reading as an interplay of touch, perception, and exploration.
