How do you design a book about the disappearance of art without losing art in the process?

For Een wereld zonder kunst is een wereld zonder ziel, Cathelijne Blok’s written manifesto became a visual one. Design studio All Sizes treated the publication as a living argument: every decision in layout, pacing, and typography carries the same urgency as Blok’s words.

Control by Commercial Type reinforces that energy. Rooted in mid-century lettering manuals, Control combines the clarity of a sans serif with the immediacy of a handwritten sign. Its slightly irregular rhythm and open forms give the text a sense of movement and insistence – a voice that demands to be heard.

In short: the book doesn’t just say saving art matters – it looks like it matters.
