1984 by George Orwell

With this binding, Andrew suggests the fear and oppression which pervades the novel, onto the design using abstract imagery. Inlaid light and dark grey leathers, along with different grains of black and crimson red goatskins merge into a Lacunose (sanded area) which is the swirl of the protagonist Winston's emotions, which are being sandwiched between the oppression of the grey reality of his life and the black fear of 'The Party'.
