Bespoke binding for Celia’s portfolio

The project

Celia commissioned Archicercle to create the binding for her portfolio. The result is a bespoke piece that brings her content together in a landscape format, with a light-coloured exterior and a circular identification label on the cover.

The studio’s contribution was to produce the binding. The contrast between the light-coloured covers and the black strip along the spine defines the exterior, while a circular label bearing the initial ‘c’ adds a personal identifier.

Inside, white pages contrast with the dark surfaces of the binding. The content combines images and text; the documented pages include a presentation featuring a photograph of a chair.

This relationship between light and dark continues through the portfolio, whether open or closed. The edges, the connection between the pages and the continuous spine complete a solution focused on giving physical form to Celia’s portfolio.
