This pop-up box is my entry for the international #boxyourbook competition, organised by Stichting Handboekbinden (the Dutch Society of Bookbinding). <\/p>\n\n\n\n


I\u2019m over the moon that my box is one of the box designs chosen by the jury that will be exhibited later this year in the Netherlands and part of the complementary catalogue.
When the competition was announced in 2020, I immediately knew it would have to be this edition of Alice in Wonderland with amazing illustrations by Dutch illustrator Floor Rieder. Check her latest work here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The \u2018Box-Your-Book\u2019 competition invited to think \u2018out-of-the-box. As described in more detail by the organising committee here<\/a>: “Design and make a box for one of you your favourite books, This competition it is all about you making a box for a book a bought or received book that you found yourself enthralled by while reading it or looking at it. The challenge lies in the way the \u2018handmade\u2019 connects with \u2018machine made\u2019. Do you, for example, want it to form a unity or to emphasize a contrast? Thinking about this can yield new creative insights for designing and making your unique and personally crafted book box.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
