    An accordion book that unfolds an atlas of Argentinian horse race gambling and tango cabalistic characters, an urban bestiary of talismanic lucky charms and chance. On the visibly printed side, the characters and their fate are revealed. On the reverse, only glowing in the dark, constellations are seen. School project designed for typography II, at the University of Buenos Aires.
