(01) Brief
A book that reads at the pace of its subject.
Photographer Lena Graf spent six years recording places in the Alps where you cannot hear a road. The publisher wanted a book that felt as calm as the photographs, without becoming a coffee-table cliché.
(02) Approach
Generous margins and a slow rhythm.
Images sit on a strict two-column grid with wide outer margins. Text is set in one size throughout, and each chapter changes paper stock so the reader feels the shift between regions.
