Of all the non-traditional book structures, the Accordion, or “Concertina” is a favorite for its dramatic presentation. Experienced by the viewer as both a display easel and a book, the accordion book provides multiple interactions and perspectives that a traditional book cannot.
The long, folded, or hinged panel is especially successful in presenting photographs, collage, small artworks, or anything that has a narrative or linear progression. From a simple single sheet to more complicated variations, the possibilities are endless. By the end of this one-day workshop, you’ll fall in love with this book structure too!
