Designed the exhibition catalog Labour Day by artist Do Hyun Baek.
The publication features a total of 57 works, including those exhibited in March 2025 and several previously unreleased pieces. Starting from the concept of “re-binding exhibited works,” the catalog was designed without traditional binding.
Each piece was printed as an individual sheet and housed within a single box, allowing the collection to function as a book when enclosed, and as individual artworks when the sheets are taken out—designed to even be framed as part of an extended exhibition. Under this unbound format, papers of varying weights and textures were freely combined.
The box was wrapped in a specially coated paper, allowing subtle tactile variations to be felt through the hand. A red hue—found at the intersection of complementary and analogous colors drawn from the artworks—was chosen to accentuate the intensity of the portrait pieces. The act of unboxing itself was treated as a design element.
The lower box was made slightly taller than the upper, giving the impression of precious works stored deep inside, while ensuring a smooth and natural opening experience. The catalog was produced as a limited edition of 100, finished with vinyl wrapping, and all copies were sold out by May 2025.
