OUGD504 - Studio Brief 01 - material choice for protection


Thinking about what material would be best to protect the interior of the book has been a difficult choice.
since the overall design of my book will not have so many pages I wanted to choose a material that wiped help give the book a little more 'weight' and 'thickness'. The best material I could think of to achieve these characteristics was 'silver board', a fairly thin board however much more stronger than very thick card. Silver Board provides strength to the book as well helping to protect the inside pages and the overall shape of the book.

Silver board is also the perfect material to help hold the front cover design and material which will be wrapped around the front and back pages.

Below are images with the silver board applied to the design




The silver board definitely helps with the books structure and stability.
