Font
The texts in this volume have been set in Garamond, a font family based on the serif typefaces created in the 16th century by the French printer and typographer Claude Garamond. It is this typographic language which, in its combination of classicism and contemporaneity, best corresponds to the beauty of simplicity that is the poetic foundation of this book.
Paper
The Wind among the Leaves is printed and bound on five kinds of paper. The inner part of the book, on which the photographs are reproduced, owes its soft feel to the Italian 135-gram GardaPat 13 Kiara paper.
The other four papers, of a refined nature in colour and finish, were developed and produced by the Japanese company Takeo: 105-gram Miyaginu Gray, with embossing inspired by a kimono fabric from the Heian period (794–1185) – the last of the classical Japanese periods – for the cover lining; 105-gram Biotope Moss Green for the endpapers and the cover of the notebook with José María Parreño’s text; 52-gram Biotope Cotton White for the inside of the same notebook, the sheet on which Felipe González’s presentation appears, and Luis Vallejo’s sketchbooks; and, finally, a sheet of 52-gram Biotope Black encloses one of these sets of sketches, the one corresponding to the 2017 exhibition in France.
