A great publication for BIBa - I found this on the internet I just love the simplicity of the design, as well as it begin sophisticated and luxury. The foiling and colour edging is also a nice touch, which gives it a special finish. The scale of the book is also a good size as it fits a double page spread on a A3 sheet which lowers print costs. It is similar to what I would like for my Design Conext publication has it is very high end, high spec.
Most people will be familiar with the name Biba. Starting as a mail order company in the early sixties and becoming a global fashion phenomenon by the early seventies, Biba became one of the great symbols of swinging London. Biba closed its doors in 1975 but was relaunched in September 2010 (exclusively at House of Fraser).
A lookbook for the re-launch was designed and produced by London based creative agency, Exposure.
The size of the book is 235x170mm, portrait, perfect bound. The 4pp cover is on Notturno 300gsm (a black board) and is hot foil blocked in gold on the outside cover. The 52pp test is printed on our Omnia 200gsm which, although quite heavy for text, really works because of the gilt (gold) edge which runs around the page edges.
