A PRIVATE JOURNAL CHANGED HISTORY

What we now consider one of the most influential works in Stoicism began as a private journal written by a Roman emperor to himself. In this video, I explore the story behind Marcus Aurelius and how that story inspired the design decisions behind this custom leather rebind. From the symbolism on the cover to the materials and colors chosen, every detail was intended to reflect the man behind the journal. I'm April Santiago, founder of Noir Rebind. I create handcrafted collectible editions inspired by the stories, philosophy, and meaning behind great books.
