Notebooks

Before the holidays, a couple designers and myself collaborated on some gifts for the Barkley Blacktop design group. We designed, screen-printed and handmade 43 books for our coworkers.

We divvied up the task and designed the 43 icons to represent each individual in the group. Thanks to Ai Carver, Angela Snyder, Casey Kovich and our copywriter Jessi Hamilton.

What kind of binding did you use? Don't see any staples or thread.

Hey Brian,

We perfect bound them. There are 3 signatures with 6 sheets of 8.5" x 11" paper per. We used book glue on the inside cover spine and fit the signatures in snug. We used clamps until the glue was dry, then we used book binding tape where the inside cover meets the interior pages. Make sense?
