Brighton-based Studio Makgill produce sumptuous book for G . F Smith

Some cracking work here from our friends at Studio Makgill with this beautiful Specials Applied book for our other pals at G . F Smith. The paper company has an unerring knack of working with some of the best design studios around – whether that’s Hamish and his team or the ongoing partnership with Made Thought – and the quality of their promotional material is testament to the importance of creative, collaborative working relationships. This book showcases G . F Smith’s more unusual stocks and through a clever use of cut-outs we’re taken on a journey through a selection of interesting samples.

“The main objective for us was to make sure it is the paper and the processes that does all the communicating and not to detract with busy graphics,” Hamish explains. “An intricate system of die-cuts allow the cover to become the contents and a window to materials within.”
