Material World


Books are all about the unity – of content, design, material, and form. What book type are you? What covering material and which paper is just right for your project? And last, but not least: How do you want to stage your logo or motif on the book? We ask questions – but we also have some answers and ideas for you.
 

It is our demand to find the perfect material for your book production. We have catalogued thousands of cover materials and papers just for this purpose. But in the midst of this great diversity, there are some brandbook favourites – which you can find in our Material Gallery. Since we are always investigating in order to find the latest trends and techniques, you can always discover something new here.
