Minimalist Pop-Up Books

Illustrator Fine Kohl Makes Art With Neutral Colors

Fine Kohl is an illustrator in Germany who creates pop-up books and book cases using little color. These works are unique and have a distinct feeling. As an art student, I can tell that Fine Kohl’s voice is coming through.

I love Fine Kohl’s pop-up books—they tell so much using little detail. Also, check out Kohl’s book cases. I love the one with the little guy dressing up as a fish—it’s so cute. Which one of the book cases do you like?
