O universo do design editorial: O processo gráfico e suas protagonistas

Abstract

This work investigates contemporary editorial design with a focus on graphic production and female protagonism within independent publishing houses. The research analyzes the book as a cultural, visual, and sensorial object, highlighting its materiality, reading modes, and political dimension. Through a literature review, interviews, analysis of similar works, and case studies, the study underscores the relevance of women in the book production chain and discusses how their contributions influence innovative practices in the publishing market. The final project, a book-object in accordion format incorporates interactive, tactile, and narrative elements that materialize the concept of unfolding, turning the book into an aesthetic and symbolic experience that reinforces the visibility and appreciation of these professionals.
