Spineless Classics Turns Whole Books Into Graphic Art

The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

 

 

 

 

This morning, something pretty neat* was sitting in my inbox, courtesy of Ally. Apparently, Carl Pappenheim is printing entire books on a single page. Pappenheim’s company, aptly named Spineless Classics, takes full texts of timeless novels and arranges them into “single paper designs.” Beautiful at a distance, the text is also legible close up!

Personally, I have a hankering for putting up The Great Gatsby print on my wall, though Dorian Gray would also look mighty dandy, too.

 

Tidbit: *neat, according to yours truly, constitutes anything related to books, type, and paper, such as these neat paper sculptures.
