Press to Press

Press to Press is a very large concertina book documenting various archetypal typographical styles associated with the subgenres of rock music, in respect to vinyl album covers.

The pages follow a chronological journey through the defining decades of each genre, featuring hand crafted typography and lettering in a seamless stream, comparing influences and reasoning on the way. The book itself spans almost two metres when opened out, and fits into a seven inch sleeve.
