Look | Taste | Think

This Project is an initiative that stands in the point of intersection of Bibliography with Art.

A book cover focused initiative, which resides within the circle of relationships between Bibliography and Aesthetics, Bibliography and The Visual, Bibliography and The Space.

The very core of the idea is that the cover of any book can be detached from the book and still have some sort of value, regardless of the language.

So we provide such a collection of (covers without texts) or without any kind of textual descriptions, organized by design element, concept, color, or style.

An initiative to encourage a different kind of thinking of/in/about the very beloved; THE COVER.

The very initial phase of the project covered  about 500 covers under only 12 categories in many languages, from many countries.

Date of Publication for covers: 2020-2023
