A booklet about the alphabetical character g. By looking upon the g as a measurement unit for weight, I based the design for the booklet upon desktop objects that weigh a single gram. The cover page shows a bent paperclip, that forms a lowercase g, while weighing one gram as well. Other pages show a pile of staples and the amount of paper tape that weighs one gram. The remaining pages of the booklet show the amount of surface covered by ink from a felt-tip pen that is needed to weigh exactly one gram.
