FUTURE ARCHIVES COLLABORATIVE EXPLORATION

An exploration of curatorial practices in relation to designers
Prompted to collaboratively explore libraries and examine the ways that they create curatorial practices, I began to explore these methods through books and collections at my local college library. During the process of this group project, we all chose to highlight a different aspect of creating a collection through our own individual exploraation and group discussion. Fascilitating conversations about collections as designers only led to more inspiration and a well crafted book using the risograph and japanese stab stitch binding for the very first time.
