‘Ajattele elämäsi hyväksi’ by Annastina Vrethammar
![]()
Full-leather binding with sculptured boards and etched copper onlays.
This was my first full-leather binding ever, completed in early 1995 as part of my degree studies in bookbinding. I have made very few design bindings with bright colours but this certainly is one of them. It is not a finely printed book, but of great importance to myself in terms of content. Only later have I realised how the colour symbology and indeed the whole design corresponds aptly to the theme of the book in quite an esoteric level. The content, in short, deals with similar issues as the well-known works of author Joseph Murphy. The design of the binding features sculptured cover boards in Harmatan goat skin, with reversed etched copper onlays.
