OUGD504- Binding Research


Coptic



Im thinking of using the coptic bind for my book. This will allow it to be laid flat when reading for better functionality.



Method: Using signatures, these binding method has an exposed spine and threading that creates braids along the spine. 
Pros: Allows the book to lay almost flat.


Long Stitch

Method: Also known as limp binding, signatures are individually bound to the spine, allowing for the creator to make unique patterns on the spine.





Secret Belgian






Method: this binding uses exposed threads, wrapping around the spine, covers and
through the signatures inside.


Japanese Stab



Method: Binds loose pages using exposed thread that wraps around the spine and on the top and bottom of the book.
