V&A Annual Review 2010/11

When starting out on the Generation Press journey there were certain aims and goals we strove for, printing the Annual Review for the V&A has to be one of those!
-
The Annual Review is the report and accounts of the charitable sector, and as such probably their most important print job of the year. Printing the Annual Review for arguably Britain’s greatest museum is a bit special and a real honor. Having earned the right after providing the V&A with consistently high quality work over the last couple of years, we were thrilled to be asked to work with their very talented in-house design team to create this prestigious piece of print.

After the concept of the book was agreed we set about making dummies to find the best way to produce the book. We tested numerous solutions and eventually found a machine manufacturer who could make us a special riveting machine. This enabled us to resolve the *elastic fixing to hold the book closed. From this point on, it's going to be affectionately known as the *Generation Band™ this gives the book its final and riveting finish (Sorry).
