about me.
Books have always played an important role in my life. As a student of History and Literature, I have walked the streets of Budapest countless times with huge piles of books under my arm. When my head was overwhelmed with words and thoughts, creating has always been there for me as a harbor to refresh and relax.
I have learned traditional bookbinding in a self-taught way. I improved all the techniques on my own, experimenting with different tools and materials at home. After months spent in the flow of trying out different sewing and gluing methods during nights of solitude, I mastered the technique of bookbinding and linocut, and Izsóp books came to life.
While designing the cover, I always strive to create a composition that attracts the eye. This can be achieved by many means: an unexpected colour combination, a strong graphic, special materials... This is my game.
I hope you will enjoy it too!
Thank you for being here!

Greenrococo x Izsóp x Lámpás az úton
“With its closeness to nature, its unpretentious simplicity, handcrafted details and use of natural materials, ‘Lámpás az úton’ guesthouse in Csókakő embodies Scandinavian approach combined with the Japanese wabi sabi lifestyle, which favors imperfection, authentic forms and avoids any form of over-decoration.”
The philosophy of ‘Lámpás az úton’ resonates deeply with the values of Izsóp and with the passion of Greenrococo’s botanical beauty.
This is how the ‘Lámpás az úton’ x Izsóp special edition book has come to life in the winter of 2024, which you can order together with plant-based cosmetics of Greenrococo when you visit ‘Lámpás az úton’ guest house.
