The Observable

I've written many posts on this blog which includes the phrase "...just the cover makes the difference!" and this is certainly an excellent example.

This is the publication by London gallery Rossi & Rossi for the show by artist Faiza Butt titled 'The Observable'.  Size of the catalogue is A5, portrait with a 4pp cover and 20pp text. Due to the tight restriction of the budget, the text is printed on a 'house silk' 150gsm, which works perfectly well but what makes this catalogue stand out, is the use of Colorset Flint 270gsm on the cover.
 The cover is simply printed in one colour, offset litho in silver (pantone 877) one side only, so a very economical print specification.
Print is also on the outside back cover.
 and the designer, Michael Windsor-Ungureanu was so impressed he wrote about how impressed the silver looked on the Colorset Flint....
Design is by Thread Design (Michael Windsor-Ungureanu). Printing is by Bowmans based in Leeds.
