The project
Archicercle made these bindings for Luis Lonjedo, who subsequently added his paintings. The result brings together a book-format structure and the artist’s work, with a distinct contribution from each.
The construction combines a fromage plywood exterior with an interior made from two MDF pieces. These two inner pieces are joined by a textile spine, forming the central connection of the binding.
The paintings bring landscapes and skies to the surfaces of the art book. The colours of the scenes contrast with the apparent light wood of the covers and the dark spine, which marks the division between the two panels when the piece is open.
Archicercle’s contribution focused on making the bindings. The paintings are by Luis Lonjedo and were added afterwards, completing the object with his artwork.
