A type-only pocket-sized paperback book made from a Wikipedia article and designed by articulating ideas of heaviness and voidness.

A series of typographic devices were used to keep the body of text as heavy as possible while maintaining a degree of readability. Quotations inside the text were treated like fading memories and the introduction to each of the chapters fall into the gutter in order to create a slight feel of discomfort.

4¼ × 6.88″, 136 pages printed and perfect bound at Lulu.com
