Book design for Montréal based photographer Jean-François Bouchard. To create this body of work, Bouchard travelled deep into the heart of the Arizona desert and documented the recreational use of military-grade weapons across shooting ranges. The swiss bound book mixes different paper stocks and features two gatefolds and a roll fold. Additional materials designed include letterpress printed stationery and a redesign of the photographer’s website.
