Kelm Bindings

a series hand-drawn illustrations as part of an instructional bookbinding set

A series of illustrations capture the necessary steps of two original binding techniques developed by Daniel Kelm of Wide Awake Garage. The balance between precise linework and subtle imperfections of the hand found in each illustration create a connection back to the manual methods essential to Daniel’s craft.
