Background
What is a book and how do the words find their place in the space we assign to them?

Renaissance concept of the book as 'a small house' – in a contemporary context

Based on a text about housing, home and relationships written by the designer herself, Ruth-Anne Degn Dausell explores the Renaissance concept of the book as 'a small house' – in a contemporary context. In a book that can be opened, read and experienced, she gives the written text a form and an expression that reflects its voice and thus creates a home for the words, where they can live and be found.
