Slanted Magazine #42—Books is a magazine about books. Every day, people ponder whether the future of the (printed) book is tied to its sensual quality. How can beautiful books secure their place in the media and society? How are content, medium, and form interconnected? Is manufacturing and design quality, in addition to its functionality, simply to be understood as a marketing argument?
In this edition, Slanted Publishers delves deeper into books that are pushing boundaries, moving beyond traditional norms, and rediscovering their essence. The belief is that genuine reading encompasses more than mere skimming; it involves understanding, grasping, and engaging in creative thinking. The value placed on the tactile experience of holding a book, flipping through its pages, setting it aside, and seamlessly resuming the reading is immense. It’s an experience cherished by many, one that defines the true essence of books.
Slanted Publishers emphasizes the resurgence of book reading as a significant trend, especially for those seeking enduring experiences and embracing multi-dimensional thinking. This edition showcases books that venture off the beaten path, departing from traditional conventions, and advocates for timeless book designs where the content shapes the form.
To commemorate the magazine’s release, Slanted Publishers has introduced a limited special edition, which includes a set of pencils from Viarco, the oldest pencil factory in Portugal. Make a statement with this and become part of the BK LVRS!

The Concept
In the world of Orwell’s 1984, the individual is not important. Rewriting the past in order to control the future, world domination, the Party and Oceania are the only things that matter. I wanted the design to convey the same themes: war, censorship, propaganda, absolute obedience and brainwashing.
The treatment of the image is suppose to convey a dreary feeling and by masking the face of the subject, he is no longer important. I deliberately placed white space across the cover at eye level to accentuate the theme of censorship. The general concept is “you don’t matter!” The font font I am using is Telegrafico. I chose this font because of it’s large counter and sharp edges which give the font a stern and rigid feel.
One of several cæsura, inserted during shifts in the narrative. Each one used a different photograph from the original drugstore pack, a contour drawing of one of the farm buidings, and an excerpt from the notes scrawled on the reverse of the photographs.
Jambo Jambo Bwana is Swahili for "Hello, Hello Sir", a common greeting extended to the tourists. Our client and her family recently traveled to Kenya for an African safari and she created this book to give to them as a holiday gift.
My final for Typography class. The project was to build a book around a chosen text. I chose 'How to Build a Time Machine' by Paul Davies. It is an overview of the physics involved with time travel and the relationship of time, space, velocity, and density. The requirements included an eight inch square book (bound), and a cover of some sort to keep it safe. My cover is built out of thin galvanized steel and is held together by rivets. All the edges are folded over for safe handling and a triangular cut-out allows the book to be removed.
This book is now in production! Coming out in May.
