This is a handmade book created in my typography class at PrattMWP. I used book binding board and fabric for the cover and used a simple decoration to showcase the book title. Text used are select quotes by Miguel Cervantes from Don Quixote. Typeface used to design the book: Didot.

What’s Unique?
The fabric of the book cover gives an illusion of changing color when moved slightly, giving the book a magical feel. The pages are each designed using typography in place of illustrations.
