This luxuriously presented brochure conveys all the attributes of the building is a tactile and engaging way. The size of the brochure is 285x216mm, portrait and comes wrapped in printed tissue, affixed with a label.
The 4pp cover is hot foil blocked on sandgrain embossed, dark grey 350gsm coverboard, from the other "Hull based" paper merchant!
The construction is actually quite unusual. The text is 'singer sewn' and, because there is a translucent flysheet on tracing paper, the flysheet is affixed to the back of the text and then the back of the flysheet is then affixed to the inside back page of the cover. A good solution allowing the text to sit nice and flat.

...and this is something that sometimes people miss - text on it's own (below) just looks, and feels, good printed on Omnia. The type stays sharp and the black looks very black.
Art direction and design is by London design studio Cre8te. The excellent repro, print and finishing is by CPI Colour with James Lager handling the project (inspire@cpicolour.co.uk)
