The Crysal Goblet Response

Statement of Intent
Beatrice Warde believes that content matters more than visuals. However, I believe that visuals matter just as much as the content because I am a visual learner. I have given each paragraph an action by picking out words, phrases and sentences that emphasize what is being said, which will help the reader understand the content, and would aid in drawing movement across the pages. To reflect my respect for her passion, many of the fonts I use is based on Perpetua. According to the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers, Beatrice worked with Eric Gill, who created Gill Sans and Perpetua using Monotype, at Monotype Corporation. Since working with Eric Gill, she’s been using his typeface. The intent is for a fun and playful booklet.
As of late, I have been having a hard time focusing and remembering while reading. I had to print out the article and jot notes down on the papers in order to recollect the memories of the text after reading. By doing this, I can easily wrap my mind around the contents. While reading, I researched Warde's history along the way. 
After reading the article, I used InDesign to separate each paragraph into a page. I had many iterations through InDesign , however, sometimes printing out the latest iteration is quite helpful, especially when asking for feedback from others. 
I printed out three iterations with each having a history of many iterations before each print. This is to get more feedback from others. 
Below is the Final Outcome. 
The two goblets are together in the spread. Since the folding process is a French Fold, I wanted the fold to go between the mirrored visuals of "two goblets".
Patterns is made into a rhythm.
"Bubble" is blown up to fit a whole spread. 
Below is the final printed version of the booklet.
The stitching was made through an industrial sewing machine.
