Astier de Villatte Ma Vie a Paris no2 English English version

Astier de Villatte designers Benoit and Ivan
A guide book that summarizes their beloved Paris in one volume.

Made with letterpress printing.
In order to line up the type stamps by hand one by one,
It takes a lot of time and effort.
A technique that has been central to printing for five centuries.

It was realized by Astier's philosophy of valuing tradition and handmade.

The binding of the guide is as beautiful as an old novel book,
One letter of letterpress printing, monochrome photographs,
Everywhere is mesmerizing.
The top, bottom, and front edge are gold-painted on three sides, giving it a luxurious feel.

In publishing the guide book, we are particular about the old-fashioned manual binding,
Established edition Astier de Villatte publishing house in Paris.
Originally, Astier de Villatte requested notebooks etc.
A letterpress printing craftsman will retire,
I opened a publishing house in that closed workshop.
Cherish the technology and culture that have been passed down since ancient times,
I want to keep good things and favorite things.
That's what I think.

A book printed with such traditional letterpress printing,
It has a very deep beauty that digital printing does not have.
In order to make a plate by combining type and print it,
It takes time and effort, and it will be the division height,
The finish with an analog feeling that is slightly blurred is still special.

I'm curious, but
Their well-connected restaurants, grocery stores, boutiques and museums
A lot of discerning addresses are clogged up.
Because it is a content that can be enjoyed as a reading,
Have an elegant moment thinking about Paris with a dictionary in hand.
Also part of the interior. It is a book that becomes a picture just by placing it.

Continuing to create works that fascinate people around the world
The commitment of the two people is interesting, and it is a book with high value as a book.
The guidebook is also available in French.
