Sample edition
Meri Dilli!
A photographic record
Photography
A large-format photography book. Duotone proofing, offset print run.
The approach
Photography books live or die on the reproduction. The sequence is edited on a wall before it is edited on a screen, images are scanned or supplied at full resolution and separated individually, and the book is proofed on press rather than signed off from a PDF. The cover gives the title almost no room, because the pictures are the argument.

The full jacket
Back cover, spine and front as one printed sheet — which is how a jacket is actually designed, and why the spine has to work as hard as the front.
