POEMS BY THE SEA

ROLE: Book design & binding

Poems by the sea is a collection of mermaid inspired poems from authors around the world. The idea is to bring the same enchantments of what is said about mermaids.sirens songs.

The book is handcrafted and bind by hand. The cover is painted with a gold texture to add in a feel for scales. The ripped yellowed pages create an old vintage book feel that can be seen back in the days. The poems are each typeset to create emphasis and help guide the readers as the navigate down the poem. The last cut in the pages give the readers a sense that they are looking at a mermaid through a spyglass.

Big thank you to all the authors that let me use their poems.
Seven Seas - Lindsay Treat
