Book and Paper Design
Stephan Ortbauer
This workshop combines the ancient craft of book binding with contemporary design. A core theme in Stephan Ortbauer’s work is the production of “artists books” in which he experiments with unusual formats and exceptional cover materials and types of paper. Another central field of activity is book restoration and research into book binding techniques. In addition to compiling an archive of literature on this subject Stephan Ortbauer also restores old precious texts.
