American Origami feels like it is treated as an object: the cover and new folding technique are referring to a bulging police file. Elements that clearly fit the subject of photographic research literally unfold themselves along the read. The photographs and elements are carefully placed and seemingly objectively structured on the folded pages of American Origami. The humble typography fits perfectly. The slightly formal feel of the design gives the reader the opportunity to gently dive into the emotionally charged subjects portrayed. This well-chosen contrast to discover the many facets of a controversial topic at your own pace is gently structured, intuitive and lets your mind wander all at once.

De afwerking is ontstaan in nauwe samenwerking met binder, ontwerper en producent. Het technische bestand wat a-symmetrisch opgemaakt diende te worden is opgemaakt door de ontwerper aan de hand van een vooraf gemaakt model waarop millimeter patroon was gedrukt, zodat per spread de 'creep' handmatig kon worden vastgesteld en aangepast. Het omslag is gedrukt in 7 kleuren — 2 x wit, 1 PMS + CMYK.
