Porsha Bespoke Ltd. create beautiful, handcrafted bathroom products from the finest natural materials.For the catalogue we used a variety of paper stocks with lots of finishing production to achieve a result reflective of the workmanship and product offering that Porsha Bespoke Ltd are known for.
The 208-page catalogue contained 32 page price booklets that were saddle stitched with steel wire and inserted into a slip case pocket. We used beautiful grey linen on the catalogue cover and spine and the text thread was sewn in 16pp sections. An even layer of glue was applied to cover the thread on the spine to create a smooth finish. All plates were custom made using settings specifi cally measured to suit the catalogue’s paper & press settings.
We were awarded Small Printer of the Year 2017 for this print project with Porsha Bespoke Ltd. which lead us to win Irish Printer of the Year 2017.
Judges commented ‘The registration and colour consistency throughout was superb, with the design, prepress, platemaking, printing, binding, embossing and print finishing showing an underlying passion for perfection that led the panel of judges to a unanimous decision.’ Freddie Snowe, Chairman of the Judging Panel
