Impossible LangheUndesign
Impossible Langhe can be defined as a tourist novel, a new literary category: a guide without addresses, a story without an ending. The volume, commissioned by the Radical Design Foundation created by Sandra and Charley Vezza, is written by Pietro Giovannini and accompanied by photographs by Maurizio Beucci.
After its success and numerous sales in Italy, the Foundation decided to translate it for the Anglo-Saxon market with the addition of texts and images. The book is divided into 9 chapters, each telling a different Langa, both geographically and in intrinsic characteristics.
The cover of the English version features a cut-out and a manual application with FineArt photos that alternate, creating 8 different covers: the book has a prominent purple edging and, like a precious object kept in a chest, is enclosed in a box that echoes its graphics.
