Elaborate Book Covers
inspiration, we love
Some books trigger a desire to own them by their mere cover. At least that's our reaction toFrancois Brindeau’s 1975 design of “La Chanson du vieux marin”.
The cover: an elaborate mixture of materials with different applications. The endpapers:
turquoise suede. The content: original etchings by Philippe Mohlitz.
It's always good to know there's room for improvement.
