SKATE OR DIY is a self published book containing
a thesis and a series of interviews I undertook
exploring DIY skateparks.


The publication allows for two levels of reading: the dissertation is visible when the book is slightly opened, and the interviews that have informed this dissertation are revealed when the book is fully opened. The front cover is encased in transparent grip tape. Alongside the publication is a 10-page pull-out poster book with images found during both the dissertation writing and the bookmaking.
