The boxes were then foiled in 22ct gold on an 1896 Imperial stamping press, to the client’s delight: “What you produced surpasses anything I could have imagined; I have a copy on display in my hallway.” Judges, also weighing up material for Halcyon Gallery, an architect’s presentation and a workspace pitch, picked up on the brochure: “The book just oozed opulence; a truly stunning example of quality finishing,” said one. Another: “Simply exceptional entry.”

“All cracking entries, but Le Boat and Nutricia in particular were amazing,” reckoned a judge. The former was an A5 guide to boating holidays in France with 104pp 130gsm text including a 12pp throw out as the final text section and a cover with another 12pp roll-out section. Nutricia, a compendium book drilled in six positions with a five-day turnaround, involved making a multiple die to punch inserts from clear polypropylene.
