Accordion Experiments
Experiments with the unique structure of the accordion book
3/15/2024
Designing and making accordion books is one of my favorite book structures to experiment with. They're a simple structure to make and offer endless possibilities. They're also a good project for book arts workshops as they provide a nice way to introduce participants to many of the principals of book binding.
