DC - Brief 3 - Laus

Source: http://heystudio.es/bases-laus-2010/

I came across this project after looking for inspiration regarding production and binding for my publication. I had discussed possible ways to categorise the sections of my book within a crit but didn't really come back with any inspiration. I could take a similar approach to Heystudio in using stock to visually divide chapters. I feel it will add to the overall appearance and professionalism of the finalised piece.

I love embossing I find any excuse to do it, but i really like the effect embossing buckram has. Its certainly something I would like to do.
