Classical box making: a different approach
Monday, 5. May 2025 to Wednesday, 7. May 2025
Course location Ascona
Three box forms will be made: a drop back box (otherwise known as solander or clam shell box) and slip cases with flat and rounded openings. Their construction is based upon a system of measuring and calculating the various parts, resulting in consistent and accurate results. They will be built using some engineering principles for structural stability and robustness, and covered in Buckram book cloth. Additional possibilities for design and decoration/titling will also be shown.
