EDITIONS OF THE SHADOW: Umberto Falorni DREAMS OF CASE

"There is nothing to be done. The houses are like people.'ve Always dreamed of being elsewhere."

Dream House is a story that Umberto
Falorni
had published under the title dream homes, dream homes , I'll be back in , spreadsheet supplement The Grandevetro in 1996.
Together we thought of him as a booklet printed by hand in the summer a few years ago as his dreamy houses, we were taken by our innate and irrepressible desire to move, we decided to migrate in the leaves of a plaquette. Umberto revised text, which was adopted with minor changes here, and I went to work with slabs and chisels.
But you know how things go. Matrices and printing characters live their own life. Sometimes foot down, gets in the way, they decide that it is time to work and do not want to know anything satisfy the commands of Torcolato. So, unfortunately, is what happened with Dreams houses and the small book was completed after several delays. Although the journey has been far longer than expected, now it is here, in our hands.
I used to text characters bodonian: 14 round clear bodies, 24 and 12 round clear emphasis in the title; body 12 clear round for the story; body 10 clear round in the colophon. For the frieze in the front I assembled typography. The incision is an etching on copper plate. The simple binding was, as usual, entrusted to the loving care of Margaret.
