Abstract
For my 2010-‐2011 ORCA Project, I studied the leather book binding for use in both design binding (building new books) and conservation binding (restoring old books) applications. Over the course of the project, I was able to complete fully complete five of the six books I originally intended to complete. The sixth book (a replication of a 16th century Gothic binding) will be complete within the end of the month.
