_Hand-bound limited edition with numbered copies
_Insights into decision-making processes in book design
_Design as a reflective, personal practice
_Between theory, experience, and attitude

This book reveals the design process with its many possibilities, detours, and decisions. In contrast to linear textbook models, it shows mistakes, dead ends, rules, and alternative solutions as an essential part of the work. This complex path usually remains hidden behind the finished book, which seems to lie before us as a matter of course. The starting point is the blank page, which is only filled with life through decisions that have been checked for content.

The book is not intended as a textbook, but uses book design as a means of illustrating design issues from the initial idea to the final print. The creative process unfolds page by page, allowing readers to directly accompany the design of the book they are currently reading.
