Tiempo, Amor y Muerte - Bioy Casares
A special-edition book exploring the life and work of Adolfo Bioy Casares.
About the project
Tiempo, Amor y Muerte is a special edition about Argentine writer Adolfo Bioy Casares. I developed the project from research and conceptual definition to content curation, editorial design and binding.
Overview
I created a physical book that connects literary content, expressive typography and the material experience of reading.
The Challenge
The challenge was to give a diverse body of literary and biographical material a coherent editorial concept, balancing long-form reading with more expressive visual passages.
Process & Design Decisions
Research and content curation shaped the concept around time, love and death. The layouts combine reading text with typographic compositions, changes in scale and selected red accents.
The physical edition extends those decisions to the cover, spine, endpapers and binding, treating the book as a complete object.
Results & Learnings
The outcome is a bound edition documented through spreads, close-ups and an animated view of the cover. The project connects editorial rhythm with material choices, from the pacing of a spread to the final binding.
