Bookbinding Workshop, Angry & Unbothered Book Launch
Launching the last two Brown Books with a bookbinding workshop was so nice that we’ve decided to do it again.
This time, we'll be binding Angry and Unbothered, a collection of sketchbook pages, with two workshop dates: July 11th and July 12th.
You’ll stitch your own copy of the book while we take you through the process step-by-step. It's beginner friendly, but if you've bound books before, we'd love to have you join us too, it’s a nice way to practice!
The workshop costs the same as buying the book, so you're really just paying for the book itself. Everything else is provided.
🗓 July 11th & July 12th, 2026
🕙 4PM - 6PM
💸 AED 75
📍 Hobb Bookshop, Dubai
👥 Only 6 spots per workshop
🧰 No tools or prior experience required
💌 Leave with a new skill, and a new Collected Volumes Brown Book!
Please be sure to select the correct workshop you would like to attend.

Bookbinding Workshops, Dhs & Fils Book Launch
We have 2 new Brown Books launching this month, and we’re doing a bookbinding workshop for each of them. Both Brown Books document a collection contributed by Hesa M. Aldahel.
I won’t give away too much about what exactly is inside each book, but the titles might give you an idea.
The first is titled Dhs د.إ, which we’ll be binding on June 13th, the second is Fils فلس, which will be on June 27th.
Come to one or both! This is beginner friendly, we’ll be here to give you the full step-by-step and a helping hand throughout, but we also encourage anyone who already knows the process to join for a nice bookbinding afternoon.
The cost of this workshop is the same as buying one Brown Book, so the workshop part is basically free. You get a handmade book, a new skill, and a very chill afternoon.

Bookbinding Workshop I
In this workshop you’ll learn the simple hand-stitching technique to make your very own blank book, and get an introduction to Collected Volumes and the research library that we’re building.
Our goal is to bring sources of inspiration and research material back into the physical world — using analog skills alongside digital tools to create more tangible and thoughtful outcomes.
