For the adventurous book artist interested in exploring the book form, look no further than e bond’s innovative and exciting class. Because each of these bindings work with single sheets of paper - as opposed to folded stacks - these structures are surprisingly simple to create. In this class you'll learn three different bindings, beginning with the palm leaf structure, one of the earliest forms of books. Then move on to two forms of the dragon scale binding, which can be scaled-up to sculptural proportions. Finally, practice the blizzard book, designed by Hedi Kyle, and learn how it can be adapted for a variety of ephemera. 

• Use a bone folder with paper 
• Use a screw punch
• Cover boards
• Fold a blizzard spine
• String together pages
