New York based American artist, Tauba Auerbach has created a three volume set of hardback books, as 8x8x8 inch cubes, in a project entitled the “RGB Colorspace Atlas“.

Each volume contains 3632 pages, and represents a look through the colour scheme of each of the three different colour channels; Red, Green and Blue.

While it must’ve been a bit of a nightmare for the printer, these digital offset printed books create a very colorful reference volume of all colours of the RGB spectrum.

The special binding was co-designed by the artist herself in collaboration with Daniel E. Kelm, and printed at Wide Awake Garage.

While this project was completed a little while ago now, I’ve still not seen copies floating around on Amazon.
