Taking a refresher course in the alphabet sounds pretty ridiculous for anyone who’s outgrown Huggies. But sometimes you’ve got to take it back to the basics'for a perspective on the ABC’s that even grown folks can appreciate, Lise Bonneau has created a new design-forward pop-up book called Typop-Up.

The coffee table-style book uses thin strips of paper to construct an elaborate 3D page for each letter and number. Taking a cue from French designer Marion Battle’s own alphabet book, Bonneau designed each page as a complex piece of architecture. No word on whether or not the book will be mass-produced, so watch the video below to flip through it…
