BOOK DESIGN
(EMMA LOUISE PRIN)
MANDATE
To design a hardcover book and slipcase that reflects the photographer Emma Louise Prin. She is a French photographer that uses the technique of pinhole photography from old tea tins.
IDEATION
This technique is what inspired me for my book design, which I based this whole book on the idea of the “pinhole”. A quote from her that inspired me was “The images tell the memory of the skin & soul”.

APPROACH
The way Emma Louise Prin does her photography is by using a metal tin box and poking a hole in it, which then captures the light and creates these stunning photographs. I was inspired by this, which led me to the idea of having the slipcase be the “pinhole” and the book being the outcome of her photographs. The slipcase has a hole in the middle of the “&” which then shines light on the book itself.
