Book Design:

The Library 
of babel

School of the Art Institute of Chicago

Individual Project

2021
This project was inspired by‘The Library of  Babel’—a short story by Argentine author and librarian Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986), conceiving of a universe in the form of a vast library containing all possible 410-page books of a certain format and character set. I designed this book based on the short story ‘The Library of babel’.
