The Mute Books (Libri Muti) collection by Slow Design features notebooks made completely by hand in Florence, Italy using time honoured printing and binding techniques. The canvas collection explore themes of painting and classic illustrations , through the enhancement of details. They will inspire you to record your own story, thoughts, lists, or ideas. They colour the edges of the book block by hand, a very nice touch reminiscent of the ancient craft of bookbinding.
