Joana Machado turns book offcuts into a one-of-a-kind bookCreative Boom · May 18, 2026
The article profiles Porto-based graphic designer Joana Machado and her experimental book made from the offcuts of another publication. Created spontaneously during the printing of a catalogue for artist Noé Sendas, the piece transforms print proofs into a unique, unrepeatable object with a circular hole through its centre. The project reflects Machado’s balance between intuition and deep research, and her ongoing exploration of the book as a physical and conceptual form.
