Rachel Hazell is bookartist. She designs, writes, illustrates, prints, binds and exhibits book-related work. It's all handmade using age-old labour-intensive methods

She strives to produce the ultimate artist's book; one that combines form and function in the most simple way

Commissions and collaborations stimulate new approaches to the book. Rachel has worked with authors, galleries, businesses, councils and a fashion designer

Apart from making books, she also sings, travels, practices yoga, takes photographs and looks out for the worldwide possibilities of workshops, residencies and the chance to prove that everbody has a book inside them

Why the typetray logo? A lifetime love of order, repetition and containers, preceded work generated by this particular storage system at Camberwell College of Art, during the Bookart MA, and has continued to be an influential theme

Hazell Deisgns Books has a motto; READ MAKE LOVE BOOKS!
