Bones, feathers, and all is an experimental book that explores the relationship between bones and feathers through both form and structure. The book’s construction is inspired by anatomy: an open-spine stitch binding represents the bones, creating the internal framework that holds the book together, while a translucent sleeve layered over the structure references the delicate surface of feathers.

The design system is built around the idea that bones are the core structure that supports the body. This relationship between structure and softness translates into the physical book, creating a contrast between the rigid, exposed binding and the sleeve's light, fragile feather patterns.
