Marion Bataille (Research)



By MARION BATAILLE

The type in this book really interests me due to the fact that it is you, as the reader, who has influence over the the forming of the type itself. Many of the letters would not work together without the physical movement of the opening and turning of the pages within the book. In some cases it is also all about the angle at which you look at the letter, you have to turn the book on its side or move it around until you can see the letter as it is meant to be. It is this versatility that intrigues me when it comes to this collection of typography, more so than the letter forms themselves.
