x-ing design, Brooklyn, New York, 2005

Description

To bring a taste of the book arts to the literary world.

Juror Notes

These small books from Brooklyn Artists Alliance are gems. Original use of letterpress-printed covers, die-cut to reveal more content or flapped with cloth, is a relief from mass-marketed books made in big factories.
