For Pentagram partner Abbott Miller (who is featured in this video discussing and sharing his monograph, published in 2014) a book is “a movie that you hold in your hands”—but what else can it be? This is the first in a series of interview-driven explorations that examine the role of the book in the context of design, biography, typography, and more.
In conjunction with our ongoing commitment to all things bibliographic—the 50 Books | 50 Covers Show and the Thesis Book Project, among others—we are pleased to post the first in a series of video interviews with people making books. Directed by Andrew Sloat, these videos are published here under our new imprint, Observer Editions.
We will be sharing these here as an occasional series and invite our readers to share their thoughts.
