Cities Above is a book I made for a project in Typography 2 class. The assignment was to connect a hometown city (current or potential) with a city from the series of stories Invisible Cities: Cities and Eyes by Italo Calvino. I picked a section about a city above the clouds, held up on stilts. The potential hometown I picked was Denver, where my brother lives.
The book comes with a magnifying bookmark that's required for reading the sections of small text.
Hang card "artifact" with a magnifying bookmark:
Hang card, front
Hang card, back

Including paper sculptures was also a requirement for the project:
